Bluebells in Hardwick Woods

We decided to follow part of the walk http://www.walkingbritain.co.uk/walks/walks/walk_b/2018/ that went around Hardwick Woods.  We parked in Saltram Estate and walked to Stag Lodge then along the road to Hardwick Wood.  The walk instructions gave the impression this was a short stretch but it was quite long.  The road was very busy and the grass verge was narrow.  Not pleasant.

Once we were in the woods it was full of bluebells and wild garlic and very beautiful.  Wild garlic lined the path to begin with.  In places there was a carpet of bluebells under the trees, then we came to a path lined with bluebells.  It was unfortunate that there was no marking on the paths so we were not sure which way to go.

We walked back to the entrance of Saltram Estate.  The grass verge was wider this way but it was still not a short or pleasant walk.  If we visit again we will park at a layby at the entrance of the wood and not at Saltram.
