Where to stay in National Forest

Site of Heather & Ibstock station. View westward, towards Heather on the B591 from Ibstock: the station had been in the dip ahead. It was on the ex-LNWR & Midland Joint (Ashby & Nuneaton) line from Nuneaton via Shackerstone (to left) to Coalville and Loughborough

Heather

When in Heather, you can plan a visit to Bardon Close and Sence Valley Country Park, some noteworthy sights in the nearby area.

Heather
Footpath from Appleby Road Clearly not heavily used, the line of the path has not been clearly maintained across the crop. The next waymark can be seen in the distance.

Snarestone

While there might not be top attractions in Snarestone, you can explore the larger area and discover places like Twycross Zoo and Saltersford Wood Country Park.
