Woodland Walks

Several years ago, a 70 acre area of woodland was purchased and prepared for the enjoyment of our guests.

The woodland now benefits from an excellent network of wide waymarked paths and tracks which will take you deep into the beautiful Bittadon Valley on a 3 mile circular route.

See the woodland animals in their natural habitat as you stroll along the three and a half miles of marked nature walks which start and finish on site.

Oaks and Larch tower above the valley floor dominating the skyline creating excellent vantage points for predatory Buzzard. It is not uncommon to see six or more Buzzards either perched on branches or soaring in the skies overhead. Squirrels also use these trees to create their nests and can often be seen collecting various nuts and feasting on the rich collection of fresh shoots and fungi.

Exploring away from the beaten track can reap rich rewards; streams are often frequented by visiting waterfowl; the well worn Badger runs and the less obvious Deer tracks are waiting to be discovered by the more adventurous.
