In most nature reserves, it's kindly requested to keep dogs on a lead at all times. Allowing dogs to roam off-lead can create issues or cause distress to livestock and wildlife.

There’s no parking at the postcode provided on this page. The only parking available is at the drunken dragon pub car park and to use the little pulpit path across the road to across Throft wood reserve (green route). The walk itself is lovely, beautiful forest walk with lots of fields nearby.
