Hayle Park Nature Reserve
Hayle Park Nature Reserve is based in Tovil Maidstone. It is an area of woodland and open parkland and managed by Hayle Park Nature Reserve Trust. Our meadow area is grown every year and then cut for hay. We then hold a late Summer Community Event. Our facilities include a modern barn, situated near our main entrance, which includes a separate kitchen area and accessible toilet.
