We travel with two dogs, and you have to think about stopping in places where they can enjoy themselves too. This was a fantastic stop, with peaceful walks through the woods and very respectful people. The only drawback is that the motorway is nearby and the noise is constant.Translating
18/06/2025 It is a free parking. I say FREE... because a lot of blue P are not free but pay and display. So it's nice to find a real free one. Gate closed from 7:00pm to 7:00 am. No hight restrictions. It is very shady in the middle of woods. The highway background hash is quite load.... but you can imagine its Ocean waves... (((-; aaa... we have mo-ho 7 mt. a lot of dog walkers come and go.
Lovely spot but lots of road noise as very near motorway. No signs & gate not locked at night atm. Toilets were closed for maintenance. Great walk across motorway bridge to forest.
