Welcome to Bentley Common

Bentley Common is a beautiful and serene nature reserve located in the heart of Warwickshire. The reserve is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, making it a popular destination for nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts. The common is spread over 100 acres of land and is surrounded by lush greenery, making it a perfect spot for a peaceful walk or a picnic with family and friends.

The common is also home to a number of rare and endangered species, including the great crested newt and the common lizard. The reserve is managed by the Warwickshire Wildlife Trust, which works tirelessly to protect and preserve the natural habitat of these species. Visitors to the common can learn more about the wildlife and their habitats through the various educational programs and events organized by the trust.

Apart from its natural beauty and wildlife, Bentley Common is also steeped in history. The common was once a site of ancient woodland, and there are still remnants of this woodland visible today. The common was also used as a training ground for soldiers during World War II, and visitors can still see the remains of the training trenches and other structures. Overall, Bentley Common is a unique and fascinating destination that offers something for everyone.
