When you arrive
On arrival at Manor Farm, Alms Hill, Bourn CB23 2SH, head down the farm driveway and into the main farmyard carpark near Knibbs the butchers shop. Park here. On foot, head around the back of the modern metal barn (not the ancient black one), past the wheelie bins (v glam...), and up the slope, passing the wood pile on your left. You should spot my silver van. Turn left and we're down the track. Accessibility Parking is available nearer to the shelter than the main car park - please contact us for details. Wildly Curious is accessed along an approx 20m wood-chipped track. The shelter area is also wood-chipped. There are 2 wheelchair accessible toilets at the farm. There is a toilet with two low steps at the shelter.
