It's a BRILLIANT place for everyone of any age and abilities. There is a great café that serves food and snacks, coffees and a good range of tea, soft drinks etc. Staff are lovely and very helpful. Good loos and usually very clean. The trails, tracks are extensive and are accessible to very nearly everyone. It has a sculpture trail, which is updated regularly and has GO APE, for those with a head for heights. Plenty of parking and is a pay and display, machines are situated in a few key points. Do go and enjoy our forest, I'm sure you will love it! Sorry, nearly forgot. It's very dog friendly too!

Great spot for family walk. We have stopped there on our way back from Wales to South England and did not regret. No problem with parking. Our dog liked it too!

Lovely for long not to steep hill walking plenty of trails and plenty of little woodland activities for the kids. Look out for the fake rain deer about lol. Lovely place to be.

The young'uns went off to do the Zog your with lots of cool interactive VR, whilst I did the mountain bike trails. The red was very muddy with slippery roots and technical single track but the blue sections were dry and quick. There is also a pump track and some short black down hill. Good coffee shop/cafe that seemed to be well organised. Also has a playground for children.

My family and I had a fantastic day at Beechenhurst. We took part in the Zog trail, and the sculpture trail, and then sat and enjoyed a coffee in the park area while our son played in the impressive play area. There's lots to do and see, and our two spaniels were welcome too.

Well laid out tracks with clear directions. Cafe is a little expensive (£3.60 for a flat white). I parked in a free car park about 10mins from the centre as I didn't know how long my visit would be. Adjacent to Go Ape.
