Manor Wood is an ancient woodland near Grafham, Cambridgeshire. We offer hands on courses and education sessions. We create a setting for all ages to connect with the natural world while managing the woodland for wildlife. Come and join us for a day playing in the woods.
"Very enjoyable and relaxing day in the woods. Despite the cold and the rain, the shelter and fire we made kept us warm and dry. I'd never done bushcraft before, but I chopped wood and learnt how to make a fire without matches or a lighter (using bark, and even a dried mushroom that has the same burning properties as charcoal). My souvenir from the day was the mighty spatula I carved out of a sycamore branch using an axe and a knife. Great antidote to city life, look forward to the spring/summer bushcraft day. Highly recommend Matt's Winter Bushcraft Skills course."
"A really great course, Matt is very knowledgeable and keeps the day flowing well. Learnt so much in the time we had. The weather was not in our favour but it didn't affect our experience at all, Matt is well set up with multiple shelters and plenty of hot drinks to keep you warm. Looking forward to returning for another session next year."
"I went with my granddaughter. We had a fantastic morning. Matt and Emma are very good host. They were very informative and we were both pleased with our honey stirrers we made. Hope to another course soon. "
