Bluebells In Woods

May is the time to see bluebells growing in British woodlands. These Spring flowers grow well at this time of year in wooded areas as the leaves haven't fully opened and the bluebells have access to the light.


There are a number of Woodland Trust woods throughout Yorkshire were you can walk for free and see the beautiful bluebells at this time of year.

  1. Hackfall , near Grewelthorpe, North Yorkshire.
  2. Harry's Folly, near Ravenscar, North Yorkshire.
There are many woods in North Yorkshire where you are likely to see bluebells, here are just a few.
  • Wood at Newton-under-Rosebury, near Great Ayton.
  • Ray Wood at Castle Howard.
  • Strid Woods near Bolton Abbey.
Thanks Judith for these lovely woodland bluebell photographs.

So if you fancy walking through Yorkshire woodlands and seeing the magnificent carpets of bluebells then why not make Valley View Farm your base.
