Mainly runnable, mature deciduous forest with some steep slopes for courses. The roughest and most challenging areas of vegetation have been avoided. The Bluebells are in full flower and give a magnificent blue spectacle. These areas including the paths and rides are strictly out of bounds and marked on the map. Courses have been planned to avoid these areas and any diversion marked on the map must be followed! You may encounter isolated pockets of Bluebells not marked on the map that you should please run round and avoid trampling.
