We went there for the first time on Saturday, when Dorset Dog Festival was held there, and returned on Sunday to explore a bit more. I'm impressed - it's 30 acres, but will eventually be explanded to 116 acres. It's mainly grasslands, with wooded areas, ponds and a river, and there's an abundance of wild flowers, including some non-native species such as orange balsam. There's even a large enclosed dog training/exercising area with a sign on the gate saying that if there's a dog already in there you have to check with their owner before entering. I'm hoping that works out and people don't hog it, preventing dogs who really need their space from getting to go off lead.
