The walk is beautiful, the people you come across are always congenial, the horses are chill with a positively companionable. The ladies in the shop are really lovely. Even when any sane person would be in bed on a lazy Sunday morning - welcoming, chipper and really well put together on the food side. I needed that coffee and enthusiasm because it was way too early for me.

A lovely place for a walk. Easy parking and a well paved path for walking or plenty of off piste tracks to explore. A good picnic area with plenty of tables. Well worth a visit.

Very nice park Minus one star for not allowing mushroom hunting there. Common sense approach needed

4/ 5

Very nice park Minus one star for not allowing mushroom hunting there. Common sense approach needed especially that this is a very creative and fun time that you can enjoy with your family, kids and friends. I d much rather hunt mushrooms than some chocolate easter egg! Lol I would gladly speak with someone to understand why this rule is in place there. It's like saying you have a fruiting apple tree and not being allowed to pick apples. Animals are master mushroom hunters hence we are not really competition. Banning mushroom hunting because of poor overall understanding what is edible and what isn't also is a bad argument for this rule.
