What you’ll find there…

What a lovely, tranquil place for a walk! We’re always delighted to visit the peaceful meadows of Frost Folly. An extension to the original park opened in June 2023, doubling the size of the meadows and adding two more ponds. With lovely views towards Warfield Church and the surrounding countryside, and a well-surfaced path, we’re confident you’ll enjoy walks here all year round.

You may notice that the fields beyond Frost Folly, towards Warfield Church, have been acquired as an extension to the walk here. When we visited in August 2024, these fields weren’t yet open to the public, but we will share news as soon as we know.

For those looking for a longer walk, wellies are recommended if it’s been wet, but it’s an easy stroll via Warfield Church and Malt Hill to Windmill Meadows (see route). You can also pick up Bracknell Forest’s Ramblers Route. This 26 mile/41.8km waymarked walk, starting from The Look Out Discovery Centre on Nine Mile Ride, passes right through. You can join section 3 on its way from Easthampstead Park to Warfield Church. More information and a leaflet is available from The Look Out.

Notes for dog walkers: There are poo bins close to the car park. Skylarks are nesting on the ground from April to August and we’re asked to keep to the footpaths, with dogs under close control, during this time. There’s limited shade in hot weather, but there are ponds for a cooling drink. You may find it useful to know that cattle may be grazing on the southern area from July through to November.
