If you venture off the beaten paths here - starting at the corner through the style you are treated to some lovely hidden paths. Nothing wrong with the bigger paths but I prefer wandering through the older parts of the woods where the trees are closer together and the path less obvious.

We walked the red route to the waterfalls which was well worth it, note that some of the tracks were like a river due to it being so wet. Clear signposts marking the routes along the way. Plenty of different walks and distances detailed at the beginning, same for the bike tracks. £2 min to park for 2hrs + additional for anytime over, however paid for when you leave so only pay for what you use. Toilets are still open in visitor centre. Note that bike hire currently requires you to bring your own hat due to Covid Well maintained tracks and would recommend anyone that enjoys the outdoors.

A really lovely place to go for a walk, there are different trails that suit all fitness levels. It can get quite busy on weekends, so would definitely recommend going during the week.

Thus is a lovely place for a walk all year round. There is something for everyone from young to old ,dogs and kids. There are all ability paths level and smooth to wilder areas and the most magnificent wooden fort made from conifers felled to allow native species to grow. Do visit you won't regret it.

Met up with some friends for a walk. We parked in one of the car parks mid way through the forest so had a lovely walk through the forest before getting to the beach. Thus is a vast beach and is great for walking the dog. Entrance fee is £5 with free car parking, well worth a visit as you could easily spend all day there
