Visited Alice Holt for the first time 26.05.12, with family and friends and really enjoyed it. Took a picnic and spend an afternoon watching the children and dogs have a great time. There is so much to do and see, including an adventure play area, trails, tree built structures for children to play in on the trail, cycle hire, picnic... More

Nice park but central areas and carparks very crowded and full of screaming children and dogs. Pick up a map and explore the marked trails, they were relatively quiet compared to the shop/playground area. Trails and well signposted and not too long. Nice way to spend a few hours. Car parking is pay and display per hour and machine takes... More

Met friends for a walk in the British summer .... raining!!. However under the cover of the woods we had a lovely walk, to be greeted by sunshine while drinking a cup of tea at the cafe. The Go Ape at the Forest is great, which we have done previously.

The forest is a great place for kids to let off steam.It features different trails to explore.For older kids it features Go Ape. The cafe is nice. You can also hire or take your own bikes. Its a pity you have to pay for parking.

We went on a hot sunny day with the kids and dog! It was pretty busy and parking is expensive but overall for a day out it was still cheap! there is also a shop where we bought drinks and ice creams

Alice Holt Forest is laid out with a number of paths and cyscleways, so it's great if you want to tire out the kids. There is also a Go Ape if you feel a little more adventurous.

Always wanted to spend time in this forest instead of rushing past along A325 on way to London. Very envigorating exploring on Mountain bikes which were perhaps rather expensive to hire. Very friendly staff in tea room and good value, wholesome food.

Lovely place to visit but, have to pick your times otherwise, you will be mown down by 4x4s in the car park. We used it as a family to hire bikes etc., but was rather disappointed when car park charges were introduced.

Beautiful woodland that we are lucky to live next to, so can walk or cycle from home. Used to visit loads when our kids were younger and in recent years take my bike there with a view to getting fitter. Its ideal for this and has well marked cycle tracks. Its problem however is like so many other public areas... More
