Beautiful bluebell woods

This review is especially helpful for those who have or use the following: Wheelchair

Overview

Norsey Woods has an easy access trail which takes you through the bluebell woods. It doesn't cover most of the woods but is certainly enough if you are pushing a wheelchair. Norsey Woodland Crafts are based next to the visitor centre and are open on Sundays and other days depending largely on what they are doing. They sell lots of rustic crafted wood items such as toadstools and planters but also DIY kits for children to take home and make funny woodland faces. Don't miss the large zoetrope in the exhibition room.

Transport & Parking

2.5

The drive into Norsey Woods is very rutted and has car scraping speed bumps. The state of the road render these unnecessary! There is a smallish area for disabled parking which is flatter and in better condition than the main car park. It is also right next to the toilets and small visitor centre.

Access

3.5

Don't be put off by the surface of the main car park. It does get better though is still a fairly rough path. I think it would be a struggle if you were wheeling yourself and needs a reasonably fit attendant to push someone round this trail. But..... it is worth it when the bluebells are out at the end of April. Maps are available outside the toilets and paths are fairly well marked.

Toilets

4

The toilet was reasonable for an outdoor venue. There was an emergency cord but I don't know how long it would be before anyone responded as this site covers a large area and the visitor centre is not manned, although there is a chidren's nursery next door. You need a Radar key to access it.

Didn't see any staff on this visit.

Anything else you wish to tell us?

This is a venue we have been back to again and again. It would be nice though if they improved the surface of the deeply rutted car park which you need to pass through.
