Reviews
"Lovely woodland walk with loads of open spaces and picnic tables aplenty. Some fairly unique features like the sculptures dotted around and a kind of treasure hunt map for young children to find some of the weirder of these (called boggarts). Some parts are forest trails and others open out onto the nearby marshland. Very easy terrain, suitable for kids capable of walking half a mile to a mile depending on the track. One of the attractions, the woodland hide had burnt down, but everything else is as described. Easy to get to as well, it is less than 5 minutes from the M62. Very well suited to a short walk (hour or so) for adults, an afternoon trip for a young family or a pleasant place for a picnic. Parking is on site and is free."
"Lovely place for a short walk, really well maintained and some beautiful photo opportunities. The dog loved it, the kids loved it and so we came away refreshed from the woods."
"Excellent for a walk in family, really great day! If you get some sun, enjoy it with a picnic, there's nice tables in some amazing areas."
"Great for a short 2km walk, there's a picnic area, too. Unfortunately, the visitor centre and public toilets don't seem to be open on a Sunday. It's also pretty quiet, not too many people so worth a visit if you're local."
"A lovely little nature reserve with a circular walking route of about a mile. A couple of bird hides with varied species. Sculpture trail. Woodland and moss. There is free parking, a visitors centre with toilets and piknick tables, benches and grassy areas. Suitable for prams and possibly wheelchairs as some of the path is tarmac and some is gravel. Good for dog walking on a lead."
