Most of our courses are run in a beautiful tract of ancient woodland
at Tulleys Farm, Turners Hill, West Sussex. The site has plentiful wildlife,
including three species of deer, badgers, foxes and a wide variety of
woodland birds. We also run annual courses in a stunning wilderness
area on the West Coast of Scotland. Your time with Wildwood Bushcraft
should be fun, with plenty of hands on experience, challenges and hopefully
you will be inspired to learn more...
