Wayford Woods: Wayford Woods is a bit of a local secret, tucked away at the end of a bumpy old lane deep in the countryside on the borders of Somerset and Dorset. There’s no car park but you can pull up by the gate and then go and explore; the 29-acre site is managed by a Charitable Trust and they do a very good job as can be vouched for in the spring when the bluebells are out and there’s a blaze of colour with rhododendron and azaleas. There are several paths around the woodland, a central meadow, a pond, and a rope swing, so it’s one of those wild areas that has much appeal to children
