Woodland tranquility.

Important!

• The valley woodland area is not suitable for wheelchairs / pushchairs due to paths being of rough gravel, quite steep and very muddy in places. Although the visitor centre and top path (Carriage Drive) is relatively flat and has views across the woodland valley.
• During wet weather some surfaces are extremely slippery especially the stonework leading to the wooden river bridges.
• Supervise children at all times, it's easy to get lost in the forest and the river banks are quite soft.
• Dogs must be kept on a close lead at all times and are not allowed in the water, clean up any mess.
• Visitor Centre, toilets and Coffee Shop are adjacent to the main pay and display car park.
• Restoration work is ongoing so expect some paths to be closed occasionally.
• Car park is open from 9am to 5pm,
