Visit websiteFantastic woods. Lots of trails to explore. There were a couple of car parks in the area which did appear to get busy. Very pretty.
I'm not entirely sure why everyone raves about this place. The car park is small, with not enough space, thus people create a second row thats quite frankly too close. I did not find many signs to follow, and found it quite difficult to navigate being a new visitor.. Its very very busy. In the winter places are a mud slurry. Walking boots or wellies required. I'm sure it looks pretty in the summer, and I believe there's a cafe there. Somewhere.
First visit to Tehidy and loved it. I parked near East Lodge, which is also near the beautiful North Cliffs (several free parking areas, and worth a visit). Visited Tehidy in early November, and the autumn colours were beautiful. Well signposted trails, great for walkers & cyclists.
Absolutely amazing walk in the woods, fully immersed in nature and fantastic facilities and coffee. The rose garden was particularly special and so impressed by the volunteers work there to restore it. Make sure you bring some monkey nuts. Also lovely to see some dog free zones for the natural wildlife to thrive there.
This place was lovely, we went to the Forrest car park and parking was chaotic and busy. We had looked before we come to make sure it was dog friendly, and in parts it was, but the main reason for us going was the wildlife part.... Dogs were banned from this large area. We ended up splitting up, with the dog taking a longer route round while I went through the wildlife area. They have a rat problem which they do have signs for near the cafe, I did see several in and around that area. My walk was gentle, ( I had a fractured leg) walking though the wildlife bit, although I didn't make the most of it as was meeting my daughter at otter bridge with the dog, her route was more of a walk and not so flat If you go, take monkey nuts with you, the squirrels are so friendly, they came up to me without food and held my hand. It was a beautiful walk and would of loved to explore more but due to dog restrictions we left.
