Bluebells- catch them while you still can!



Spring has sprung on the estate, and indeed has been far warmer than we have been used to of late. This has meant some spectacular displays of bluebells, but the bracken is beginning to take over so you will need to hurry if you are to catch them!






The picture was taken today in Withycombe Wood (grid ref ST021415), and shows Bob the dog enjoying the bluebell s there. Withycombe Wood is situated just off the A39, and there is a footpath that bisects the wood, and a circular route that goes round it. Cars can park in Withycombe.






There are some great stands of bluebells all over the estate, and you can see them on most of our woodland trails, so it is not too late to catch them, but hurry as they won't be here for much longer!

spring has sprung- for now!


Spring is here at last- leaves are starting to appear on the hedgerow trees, birds are starting to sing and lambs are playing in the fields... Sights and sounds like this make it even better to walk on our new waymarked walking trails which have been completed over the winter.


Trails leaflets are to be available from a range of outlets locally- including B&Bs, visitor centres and camp sites- and on our website of course!
