A beautiful fen surrounded by heathland. There are a few narrow sandy paths through the heather (which begins to bloom around this time). Along the main path to the watery fen, you'll find two benches. If it's too crowded and you still want to stop for a rest, there's also a covered shelter with a picnic table.
