Avon Heath Country Park

To find this place from Bournemouth, take the Spur Road out of Bournemouth as if you are heading for Ringwood. Go to the end of the Spur road. At the roundabout, turn left, join the A31. After a mile or so, you will see signs for 'Avon Heath Country Park' and also the lorry park. At the next roundabout (Little Chef), turn left and follow the road down to the end. There is a left bend at the bottom, follow the road round and take a left under the iron barrier. Either park to the left (the dark bit) or the right, with a view of the cottage. It's best to sit in your car for a while to suss things out.
