Limited parking is available at the Hide. The Hide is within walking distance of the road and it is near a public walkway and is suitable for wheelchair users.
Activity around the Hide can vary depending on time of year and the weather. The Red Squirrel are wild animals and come and go as they feel, so we do not guarantee Red Squirrels on your visit. The Hide area is primed with feed by GRSG volunteers, this can happen once or twice a week (mid-week/ weekends) depending on their other commitments.
We ask you to not use Wheat as the Squirrels and most of the birds on site do not eat it and it will attract Rats and Crows.
