Lovely hidden gem! We looked up on Bristol Barker which is the website full of good recommendations for dog walking as we try to get our pooch to explore new places and working on her sniffing skills. We found this on the list and we were very surprised how pretty it is! Very healthy mossy wood, lots of sticks for the dog and very easy route to get around for either short or long walk. Parking is free on-site and very easy perhaps it wasn't a busy day but I can't imagine this place could be busy. There's no bin so make sure you carry all your litters with you and no toilets as far as we can see. We definitely going back very soon.

If you like trees, lots of them, and you have a dog, this is the place for you. There are several wide, gravelled paths and lots of adjoining grassy paths, suitable for walkers. Dogs love running into the woods and out again, so this a great place for them. I am on a mobility scooter and fortunately it has good suspension as parts of the gravelled paths are very rocky and I bounce along. Nevertheless its good to take my dog for a walk there. There is a good car park.

Great walk, there's a large car park, lots of trails to walk. Couldn't find a map though at the woods so best to see if you can find a trail map online. We followed the outside path and walked for around an hour and a half and only saw another person once in that time, admittedly it was on a Friday at 1pm so maybe not a true test of how busy it can be. Will certainly go again some time.

Lovely walk and great if you’ve got dogs. It’s well paved so you don’t need walking boots on a dry day. You can choose the length of your walk so if you just fancy stretching your legs in some beautiful woodland this is for you! Parking is fairly limited but we’ve always managed to get a space. Google postcode isn’t very accurate. On what3words it’s ‘attracts.rumbles.highlighted’

A wonderful well managed wood. Plenty of parking although it does get busy. There are a few marked trails, and plenty of other trails and paths to follow throughout the woods. It's s fantastic place to bring kids for an afternoon of exploring. Even though the car park was busy when we arrived the woods themselves are so large that we only saw one other family.

Found this place whilst driving somewhere else. Really lovely place. Have only explored a small portion of it. Dogs loved it as will as me. Will definitely be again EDIT:I have been back today and although muddy in places it was still a beautiful walk. I have only explored part of the woods, so I'm looking forward to doing more exploring
