The car park is free but they have a machine for optional donations towards upkeep of the common. There is lots of parking spaces and picnic benches here. There’s also a cafe and toilet. Lots of walks crisscross the common. Look out for the horses roaming free on the common. Expect it to get muddy during winter. Picnic area: Lots of picnic tables.
This nature reserve has plenty of parking but as it is a popular destination for walkers with or without a dog, it can get busy. There are plenty of well maintained footpaths but during my January walk, many footpaths were flooded or very muddy, so wellies is a must. It is always a treat to see the wild ponies on the commons, but one must not approach them as they are not domesticated. The small café has some basics, but very few seats. On warmer days visitors use the many picnic tables.
Great place for a walk and explore of the woods and area. Cycle a lot up here as it’s off the road and safe to cycle about without having to worry about cars.
Great experience..they have a wheelchair path but because of the type of wheelchairs we had very off-road we didn't stay on it and subsequently had a great time!
I've lived in Newbury for about a year and have only just discovered this place! Google maps however, sent me towards the School, so be aware. Cafe is open 7 days a week, nominal 'volunteer' payment for the car park, there are a few places to park and the walks can be adjusted to your ability/preference...loved it!
Great visit on a Sunday afternoon, lots of places to walk and explore and magical wild horses. Good for dogs but cafe shut very early.
Stopped off to give Spike a walk, it's a lovely well maintained wood. Plenty of parking and a small café and toilets at the entrance to the common. There is an asphalt path for less abled people, with a good amount of seats along the route, especially for people like me and my arthritic knees. There is also a good selection of mapped routes for others. Picnic areas surrounded by wildlife. Eventhough the car parks were quite full, wandering around the common, there weren't many people about, I could hear children and families in the distance. It was a very pleasant wander. Restrooms: I didn't use the rest room or go to the cafe. Dog-friendliness: Plenty people walking their dogs, giving them a bit of freedom to wander. Picnic area: Picnic tables surrounded by grassed areas are near to the many parking areas,
Very wet at the moment, but it's still great for walking if you wear wellies. The Snug cafe has a lovely selection of food and drinks. The staff are wonderful and friendly. Great place to walk and enjoy nature, there are some semi wild ponies there too , so you might be able to spot them if you are lucky. Restrooms: Separate toilet facilities for men, women and easy access Dog-friendliness: Really good to take your dog, Snug has doggy treats and doggy ice-cream Picnic area: There are also separate picnic areas in the common located near the car park areas.
What a fantastic last minute find to go walk around yesterday. Ponies, sheep, lots of birds, plenty of wild climbing and many different trails. Also an accessible route that's paved. Don't forget crayons for littles to do the rubbings on the way around. Picnic area: Lovely picnic area by the carpark and normal benches dotted around the walk
Plenty of parking mid week with disabled spaces. Asks for £3 donation for upkeep. Tarmac, gravel and trails through forest and heather. An open picnic area and seating throughout the walks. Has a cafe serving drinks, sandwich ect. Toilets are open same time as cafe. We saw pony's too. Maps are displayed in various places. Great place to walk.
