Reviews of National Trust - Hembury and Holne Woods
"Wonderful riverside walk. Steps in places. Saw a kingfisher. Peaceful."
"beyond beautiful. the walk down to the river from the car park is easy and really lovely! lots to look at, whether that's trees, rocks, beetles or birds. the river looks as though it gets deep enough to swim in so when the weather picks up again we will definitely be taking a dip! super easy location to find and great amount of parking spaces (the parking is free)."
"Woods great walked down to the river. The trees by the side had the soil around the roots washed away which l found fascinating"
"Free car park a few minutes from Buckfast. Woodland walks along river Dart and up steep hill to the fort (site rather than a building!). Great for dog walking, paddling in river and there is a wide deep area for swimming."
"Fantastic and peaceful place. Lovely walk along the river and up to the fort with stunning views"
