Monstay Farm Campsite

Highlight • Rest Area

Beautiful spot to camp. Just off the road by the Mortimer Forest car park and right next to Bringewood. You can ride straight out of the campsite and into Bringewood Forest and start your adventure ride without touching tarmac :-)
Really friendly hosts and super clean showers and toilet facilities.

Mortimer Forest

Highlight • Forest

Although originally made up of ancient royal chases and deer parks, the forest we see today was largely planted by the Forestry Commission in the 1920s. It was named after the Mortimer Family, Norman Lords who held power over the region for some 300 years.

High Vinnalls Summit

Highlight • Forest

High Vinnalls is the highest point in Mortimer Forest at 1,230 feet (375 m) and is considered part of the Shropshire Hills family, despite being in North Herefordshire. It rewards hikers with a massive vista of wild Mid Wales to the west, as well as a tick for Marilyn baggers. The Mortimer Trail, a 30-mile (48 km) hike from Ludlow to Kington, passes over the summit.
