Lovely, quiet sanctuary

Date of visit: June 2024

I have experience of challenges around: moving around

The layby for parking. It was easy enough for us, bit obviously has limitations

The paths were solid like this throughout.

Overall Rating

Excellent

We weren't sure if this would be a busy spot, as we were visiting on one of the first sunny days of the year, but it was beautifully tranquil, with hardly anyone around.

Disabled Access In and Around

Good

We were there with a mobility scooter. Paths were firm and easy, with only one small slope that wouldn't present much problem to a manual wheelchair. There was seating on route, though some needed removing as not in best condition. No steps. Signage ok, good if you consider it's a small place. All areas, except a treehouse, were equally as accessible to all of us.

Parking & Transport

Good

We parked in the layby near the entrance. I found it easier than expected going on other reviews. The road is a fast road, but it was quiet and there's space to get round cars without getting forced into the road. Not sure how easy this would be to access without the car.
