Felley Priory Woods Walk
This walk visits the historic Felley Priory near Underwood in Nottinghamshire.
The priory is a lovely place for a stroll with beautiful gardens and woodland trails with lots of bluebells in the spring months. The site dates all the way back to the 12th century although the current house is from the 15th century. In the garden you'll find gorgeous herbaceous borders, splendid topiary and a stunning carpet of Daffodils during early spring.
