Ackender Wood is just on the edge of Alton and in April and May, it comes alive with carpets and carpets of bluebells. Our walk actually starts from neighbouring Bushy Leaze Wood, which allows for the bluebells to build up to a mid-point crescendo!

West Horsley Place is a historic manor house and estate between Guildford and Leatherhead. It is familiar to many as the sole filming location for hit BBC sitcom Ghosts The grounds are open to the public to use for well-being and nature connection.

What a joy this walk was on a sunny spring day! The paths were lined with a multitude of spring flowers and the woodland carpeted with bluebells. West Meon itself is an attractive village with a traditional stores and well-loved pub. To complete the excursion, children will be excited by the new climbing towers and slides in the recreation ground, from where the walk starts.

This walk encompasses everything we love about the New Forest; an epic family pub, tracks suitable for walkers and cyclists, huge ancient oaks and magical conifer plantations, free-roaming ponies, heather clad open plains and bridges over gentle streams.

In May and June, the Rhododendron Wood at Leith Hill is a riot of colour and scent. Start a woodland walk here and then climb to The Tower for the best views in South-East England.

Roydon Woods Nature Reserve is regarded as one of the best places to see bluebells in the New Forest. As well as ancient woodland copses and grassy meadows, this walk also includes a wide shallow ford over the Lymington River.
