Luggage storageNational Trust - Leigh Woods

Leigh Woods is an ancient woodland on the southern side of the Avon Gorge in the United Kingdom, just across from Bristol. Its history reflects centuries of woodland management and Victorian-era landscaping tied to nearby estates; the dramatic setting beside the Clifton Suspension Bridge and the steep gorge has shaped both its natural character and its role in local history.

People visit for the easy-access walking trails, sweeping views over Bristol and the gorge, spring bluebells and diverse wildlife, plus opportunities for photography, picnics and informal cycling. Managed in part by the National Trust, Leigh Woods is a popular green space for day-trippers and locals alike, offering a cultural and practical outdoor escape close to Bristol city centre.
