Why it's Wildland

6.0

Heartwood Forest is a large new woodland near Sandridge, with bluebells and other seasonal features represented in the Woodland Trust’s visitor information and image gallery.

Its appeal is the contrast between a newly established forest and bluebell woodland: a place to experience a changing landscape rather than a single dramatic landmark. The supplied research does not verify specific trails or facilities, so check current visitor information before planning a longer visit.
