Reviews of Wren's Nest
"Lovely place to walk around and take kids to look for fossils. Dont take digging equipment!! As not allowed. Would love to see the Severn Sisters caves open up but think it wouldn't be possible in these current times of cost cutting"
"Such a great spot for fossil hunting. So many beautiful shells and corals ALL over. Great spot for a kids day out and little walk. The views aren't great but the fossils make up for that!! There are little mountains to climb up and then loose rock fall and fossils for those who don't like a scramble!"
"Fascinating sedimentary rocks with plenty of bedding planes exposed. The ripple beds are especially interesting and protected from climbing and sampling damage. Plenty of areas for kids (of all ages) to explore and find fossils."
"Really interesting place to look around. You could easily spend several hours walking and fossil hunting. Great place to walk the dog. Car parking is free but limited to around 15 cars. Definitely worth a visit."
