Dog walking is welcomed in this individually identified Forestry England outdoor site under the forest dog code. Keep dogs close and in sight; use a lead when recall is unreliable, prevent chasing people or animals, clean up waste and follow local wildlife, forestry-work and safety signs. Temporary restrictions can change available routes. Indoor buildings, concession cafés, campsites and event admission are not covered by this outdoor permission. Parking charges are separate from dog admission; dog fees and dog-number limits are not established. The mapped point is the owner published visitor-location point, not an independently confirmed entrance.

Keep dogs under control, avoid distressing visitors or wildlife, use leads where official signs require and clear up after dogs. Forestry operations may restrict access; follow safety signs.

There may be restrictions on access to parts of the forest from time to time due to forest operations. Pay attention to safety signage.

We advise visitors, particularly dog walkers, to keep their dogs under close control at all times and keep a safe distance from the livestock that graze here. The cows provide an important role, helping to improve the condition of the area, which is a nationally important Site of Special Scientific Interest.
