Bourne Wood, Farnham

Advance notice of temporary car park closure

We’ll be carrying out essential repairs and re-surfacing  the car park at Bourne Wood from 29 June – 13 July. This work is not related to any filming permissions, the short-term closure is part of our ongoing maintenance to make sure the car park is safe for all users. It’s vitally important that people observe safety signage and do not enter the site where machines are working.

Local residents can still walk into the woodland for recreational activities while the car park is being repaired. There are alternative places to visit, such as Abbotts Wood or Alice Holt Forest, so there’s no need to obstruct gateways with vehicles, or park on the grass verges.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

High fire risk
Fires of any kind, including BBQs or the disposal of cigarettes, are currently not allowed anywhere on the heathland or woods.

Located near Farnham and set above a large heathland clearing, Bourne Wood offers impressive views over the surrounding pine forests.

The sand soil provides a good walking surface, and the many public footpaths give great access to the woodland, where you can take in the beautiful natural scenery. 

Bourne Wood is also strategically important to the UK film industry as a filming location. Since 1999 numerous films, commercials, television programmes and music videos have been filmed here!
