The real joy in fascinating Savernake Forest is in grabbing one of the excellent maps from reception and chosing your route as you go, from a huge network of crisscrossing trails. But this stroll is a good introduction into what the ancient woodlands offer; such as old, characterful oaks, woodland pools, deer, plentiful birdlife and several historical monuments.
