It's amazing the beautiful areas you can find when you look. We now have a long list of places to visit in cambridgeshire and Bedforshire. Today's visit was Aspley Woods, just north of Milton Keynes, not renowned for being the most spectacular place in the UK, but Aspley Woods is a treasure. Free car parking (this is how it should be, no parking fee to enjoy the countryside). On the downside there is no signage or maps so you pretty much have to leave a breadcrumb trail as there are so many possible paths to take. But, it was full of dog walkers. Due to the number of trails you can go for a long time and not see anyone, and miraculously it has slopes. You wouldn't call them hills, but there were mounds. The crisp winters day was gorgeous. Even in th emiddle of the day there was still frost on the ground. The sun was so bright and the sky was such a deep colour. Winter sun is so much nicer than summer sun.
Aspley Woods is one of the largest woodland areas in Bedfordshire, and we will definitly be back.
