A protected woody area, where you can walk for miles and lose yourselves in the blue bells, or in the leaves of Autumn when it is stunning. There are various paths to suit everyone with strategic benches in places with views plus wild ponies roam it so it is gated and safe. Free parking (donations welcome), small cafe and toilets open when the cafe is. Wellington boots needed often but there are disabled/pushchair friendly paths. Just a mile or so from Hampshire, it is easy to get to and very pleasant on a hot day as plenty of shady trees. Children can make wood dens, there are nature walks to follow and a play area with picnic tables.
