A leisurely stroll through several woods starting at the carpark to the
rear of The Inn at Belfairs . Eastwood Road North Leigh on Sea Essex SS9 4LR by the bowling green toilets and refreshments are available here
We proceed through Belfairs wood beside Belfairs golf club before entering Pound Wood a stroll around Pound Woods brings us into Tile wood then into Daws Heath Nature Reserve before entering the Cottage plantation now renamed The Valerie Wells Wood onto Great Wood and back to Belfairs wood where you are able to rehydrate and have a bite to eat at The inn at Belfairs
The entire walk is approx 7.5 miles mainly through wooded areas and Nature Reserves on well established paths
Although the woods are quiet and you will feel secluded you are only a short diversion away from toilets or refreshments
A leisurely stroll through coppiced woodland Nature Reserves and an Area of special scientific interest

A great walk for the whole family
