Wilderness Wood

This is unique woodland most recently won the Royal Agricultural Society "Best managed medium size wood" award! Here you can have lots of fun or find peace and quiet, learn about growing trees and using wood, buy garden furniture made from Sussex oak and chestnut, or simply come and have tea in relaxing surroundings.

The barn (with refreshments, shop, exhibition), picnic places, tea garden and the yard area are accessible to wheelchairs. There is a cubicle for disabled people in the ladies WC. A ¼ mile easy-access path includes bluebells and viewpoint although a strong pusher will be needed. The wood is open daily all the year round, from 10 am until 5.30pm and there is something to enjoy at all seasons, from bluebell time to the Christmas tree harvest.
