Bedelands Nature Reserve Walk
This walk visits the Bedelands Farm Nature Reserve in Burgess Hill, West Sussex.
The reserve is located on the northern outskirts of the town. You can follow a series of pleasant footpaths around the site's bluebell woodland, wildflower meadows, grazed meadows, wetland and ancient hedgerows. There's also a pretty lake and a picturesque waterfall to see.
The area is great for wildlife with birds suchs as Great Spotted Woodpecker, Lesser Spotted Woodpecker, Eurasian Green Woodpecker, Long-eared Owl, Sparrowhawk, Mistle Thrush, Common Raven, Eurasian Kestrel and Eurasian Treecreeper to look out for.
To continue your walking in the area head south east to explore Ditchling Common Country Park. The common is a fine open space for walking with miles of trails and a wildlife pond.
