This is just the best find ever! Parked in the National Trust carpark. It has several disabled parking places. Went through the gate marked East Soar Farm. I went down the track for farm. It was no problem for me in my wheel chair bumpy yes but very manageable (not sure it would be for those who can't be shaken in there wheel chair). It helped me connect with nature.
