Reviews
Pretty place for an afternoon walk and for some fresh air, with the added benefit of popping into Dobbies for use of the cafe, toilet and some household shopping.
It does get busy, and have mainly seen families in groups.
Although there is a lovely little café as you enter the park, and I highly recommend to grab a hot chocolate with all the trimmings!
This is a great place to go for a walk, and probably a run too if you like running. It's a dog friendly place too, and dogs definitely like running. Nature is good for you, so visit and have a walk, just make sure you have appropriate clothes for the weather. I always carry a bottle of water, flapjacks or similar, and a camera.
Careful on parking as it's a busy road. I'd recommend reversing if you have dogs to get out of the boot. Keep kids close too.
The woods themselves are very commercial as you can see from the planting so not a great deal of interest. However the dogs loved it once they were in and off the lead. It was very easy to walk through the middle with a tarmac track through and some off shoots. The rest of the tracks are mixed some well trod and others less so.
All in a pleasant place.
A favourite place for a dog walk. Beautiful to get (semi) lost in the woods. So many different trails to follow and walks that extend beyond.
Such a lovely forest at the edge of Northampton. A breath of fresh air. Plenty of paths to go on and walk. It looks like it's very popular for dog walking. It gets very busy during the weekend, but it's nice and quiet during the week. You can also buy some wood here. Some blackberry bushes along side the paths which are a nice treat for the kids and myself during a walk.
Parking is across the street from the entrance, it's free, but it gets full really quickly.
A really lovely peaceful place to walk and reflect. Beautiful location
Great Place For A Walk Through The Pine Trees And A Place Just I side The Entrance To Buy Hit / Cold Drinks And Pastries.
Easy to park opposite the entrance but I'd say on busy days it could be difficult.
I visited six years ago and to be honest it looks better managed now, nice walks for absolutely everyone with great views of the forest.
There is a place in the middle of the forest that you hear nothing but trees moving and birds singing.
No places to sit as such but we found a log used to reach a rope swing that we used for a picnic instead.
Although we did have a cheeky swing as well.
Totally litter free which is amazing in this day and age.
Overall you gotta go and visit to have your own experiences, we are glad we did.
