Bourne Wood is a quiet ancient woodland with mixed conifers and a mixture of broadleaf trees. There is a car park and picnic area - however, please be aware that there are NO TOILETS at this site. Visitors can walk up to the ponds where kingfishers and herons can often be seen. The Friends of Bourne Wood organise regular events throughout the year, so visit their website or look out for notices in the wood.
