If you have never spent an afternoon at this amazing park in Bordon, then you really should. It has to have one of the very best play areas in Hampshire as well as easy sandy trails to explore through woodland.

There is over 2,000 acres of open access woodland and downland to explore at this country park which also features a woodland play area and assault course.

When the tide is out, this quiet, dog friendly corner of Hayling Island provides a sandy beach and sand dunes. A great place for a family stroll by the sea.

Ideally placed at the entrance to the marina, the Boat House Café has seating looking out across the harbour. You can make your way there, whilst admiring the boats, along flat, paved paths.

Start this walk with an exploration of the palace grounds and you will find there is still plenty remaining of this once grand residence. The walk then heads along a disused railway, across farmland and back to the town’s pond.

The walk may only be forty-five minutes, but you will spend a whole day here as there is so much to do in this riverside country park that even has its own farm!

A glance at a map will show that much of the West Sussex coastline is built up with a breaks of countryside remaining. This walk follows one of those gaps to offer the best of coast and country to your left and right!

An entrance fee is required to enjoy The Discovery Trail at Priory Farm near Redhill, but it is worth every penny to experience this nature walk set in woodland and meadows with play structures and other surprise around every corner.
