About Your Visit

Everything You Need to Know

Our woodland adventure parks are fully enclosed with 6ft fencing and small 2.5cm mesh, safe for even the smallest of dogs.

We provide in-field parking for 1 car at Wildwood, 10 at Bluebell, & 5 at both The Meadow and The Paddocks.  (Note, Wildwood has a further car park for 20 cars directly outside the woodland).

Your booking is for hire and sole use of your choice of park, so just you and your dog(s) can enjoy your visit.

Where Are We Located?

Located in Rettendon, Essex with acres of natural untouched woodland set in an idyllic setting surrounded by fields and natural beauty.

 

We provide a safe and enclosed space that you can hire out for single or multiple dogs.  Our woodlands lets you relax with the peace of mind that your dog is in a safe, happy and secure area.

Why Visit a Woodland Parks?

Sniffing out new smells and jumping over logs and tree trunks provides great exercise, stimulation and enrichment for our dogs.  The beautiful scenery, varied terrain and peaceful surroundings boost our own physical and mental health too, so its hugely beneficial to both our two and four legged visitors.

The beautiful trees at the parks provide shelter on rainy days and much needed shade during the hot summer months.  And there is plenty of open space to walk in the fresh air !

An enclosed woodland is a whole new experience compared to a field. Great for rescue dogs, dogs with poor recall, reactive dogs or dogs that chase livestock.  It's also the perfect setting for training and photoshoots.
