Beverley Parks Nature Reserve — Attraction in Woodmansey

We can no longer go to the woods because twice now we have encountered 2 men taking a pack of dogs off their leads and totally uncontrolled and they have attacked our dogs. The first time they knocked my wife over and she injured her knees on on the coarse gravel one this part of the path. The second time we saw them about 50 yards away and as soon as they noticed our dogs they came running towards us and the two men made no attempt to call them back. The pack consists of 3 retrievers, a border collie, a spaniel and a French bulldog. One of the retrievers and the French bulldog attacked our 2 miniature dachshunds.

If you're lucky you'll spot rabbits/deer/foxes or hear the bees buzzing around. Or try one of the many varieties of apples growing in the orchard.

There's a bin at the entrance gate so no excuse for leaving litter/dog poop.

Ample parking on a gravel, watch out for the pot holes though! Also, keep a close eye on young children/dogs as the working farm next door occasionally has tractors/heavy...
