    Bates Green Farm has been opening up its ancient woods for walkers to see the bluebells every…read morespring for 39 years. Situated between Lewes and Eastbourne, it's become a very popular (and award-winning) seasonal visitor attraction, and raises a lot of money for local charities in the process. A number of trails are provided, some just through the bluebell woods, but others taking in more countryside, if that appeals to you. You can walk for up to 4 miles if you plan it well, or just over half a mile (1km) if all all you want to see is the bluebells. Maps are available as you enter. The farm has a tea-room with cakes and sandwiches, as well as stalls run by local charities selling gifts, greetings cards, books, home-made jams and chutneys; and a farmers' market. This is still a working farm, so if you want to, you can even watch the cows being milked in the dairy! The website has full details of all the attractions. The main walk is suitable for wheelchairs (albeit rather bumpy), and mobility scooters can be hired. Full details are on the website. Dogs are allowed (but must be on a lead) but cyclists are not allowed to ride through the woods. (A rail is provided to which bikes can be securely locked.) Car parking is in an adjacent field. There's a picnic area, though you can't picnic in the woods themselves. The farm hosts school visits as well - the woodlands are an important wildlife conservation habitat. In 2011 entry for adults was £4.

Open during the spring, the walk through Beatons Wood is wheelchair friendly and provides an opportunity to enjoy enchanting vistas of wood anemones and bluebells. On this walk there are seats for you to enjoy the peace and tranquility of the ancient oak and hornbeam wood. Along all of the walks there are illustrated information signs describing the flora and fauna of the countryside. With busy tearooms and other attractions the walks help raise money for national charities and local projects.
