Activities
Waymarked routes, of mainly hard surface and grass, invite walkers and horse riders to enjoy a wealth of landscapes, wildlife habitats and spectacular viewpoints.
A community Orchard of fruit trees has been developed in partnership between the county council, the National Forest Company and the community of the villages of Woodhouse and Woodhouse Eaves. Designed and planted by villagers it provides a regular harvest of fruit each year and a place for everyone to enjoy.
From the Windmill viewing platform landmarks such as Belvoir Castle and Billesdon Coplow can be seen across the Soar valley on a clear day.

Nature
Broombriggs Farm is managed in traditional ways which helps to retain its varied landscapes. Arable crops are mainly grown in some of the lower lying fields and the upper fields are inhabited by livestock including cattle and sheep.
Existing woodlands and parkland trees on the farm have been enhanced by more recent tree planting, as part of a wider contribution to the National Forest.
