      Explore the forest

      The forest is a gigantic adventure playground and the ideal place to explore on a short break with toddlers. Splash through puddles, spot ducklings by the lake, look for creepy-crawlies under logs and enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of the forest around you. You can hire buggy trailers from the Cycle Centre – be sure to check your village map for the cycle routes. 

      Please be aware that due to the nature of the forest, not all woodland paths are suitable for pushchairs.
