Oldbury Court Estate

Oldbury Court Estate

Bristol City Council · Bristol

A beautiful riverside estate with ancient woodlands, meadows, and the River Frome running through it. The adventure playground is fantastic and there are lovely walking trails. It feels like countryside despite being in the city.
