Local Dog Walks

Bramshaw Woods (New Forest)
This Is A Nice Walk Through Part Of Bramshaw. There Are A Few Areas Around Here Good For Walking, But For This One, We Parked Just Off Forest Road, And Headed In Bramshaw Wood From There. We Went In Autumn, And The Whole Woods Was Covered In Fallen Leaves. Dogs Can Have A Really Good Forage Around. There Is A Stream, But The Walk Is Mainly Flat. Nothing Too Strenuous! Nice Place To Take The Children As Well, As There Is Plenty To Climb! Bramshaw Wood Cottage Nomansland Salisbury Lancashire SP5 2DB 1.80 miles
