This 32-acre (13 ha) nature reserve has many woodland trails to explore and some ideal picnic spots alongside the beautiful Luddenden Brook. Birdlife enthusiasts will enjoy the array of woodland birds found here, including woodpeckers, robins, goldfinch, creepers and nuthatches.

Autumn is a particularly lovely time to visit the reserve, when the leaves turn red and gold and fungi crop up in great numbers. Be warned that midges can be a nuisance on warm, still summer days.
