Wilderness Wood

About

"A hidden treat". A unique 61 acre family-run working woodland, where you can still see traditional coppicing. Fascinating and beautiful at all seasons, with miles of paths and tracks to explore, including springtime bluebell walk and easy access path.

Woodland trails explain how the woodland ticks, and introduce its wildlife. Children love the playground, exploring, building camps. Picnic places, BBQs for hire, refreshments with local produce in unique timber barn and tea garden.

Gift shop and exhibition. Workshop making garden furniture and structures, wood products to buy. Programme of special events & guided walks. Groups and schools welcome.
