We had a lovely evening in Hollington Wood – thank you Gordon for leading the walk. The bluebells were looking amazing and this little gem of a wood always has the touch of magic about it that you find in so many of our ancient woods. Philip Solt (the owner) took us round the wood introducing us to his wonderful Mangalitza pigs, pointing out a wild honey bees nest, an active badgers sett and also showing us just how tall the bluebells were this year, maybe as a result of the long growing season. We ended the evening sampling his home brewed beer and primrose wine which was exceptional, as was the sunset on the way back across the fields!!
