Dorneywood Garden

From Junction 2 M40 Leave the M40 at Junction 2. Follow A355 towards Slough for a very short distance. Go straight over the traffic lights (for turning into the Services) and immediately take the slip road to turn right (signposted Burnham). Follow the road (with care as it is narrow in places) until you pass The Jolly Woodman pub on your left. Turn left, taking the second left on the forked junction. This is Dorneywood Road. At Littleworth Common, pass a left-hand turn with a row of cottage opposite. Dorneywood is a few hundred yards beyond on the left-hand-side. The entrance is concealed but has a clipped beech hedge alongside and solid black gates. NB: for public open days, parking signs will direct all visitors to the car-parking area. From Junction 7 M4 Exit the M4 at Junction 7. Turn left at the first roundabout. Keep in the right-hand lane and turn right at the first traffic lights. Pass under the bridge and turn right at the mini roundabout. Follow the road through two sets of traffic lights close together and turn left into Hogfair Lane. Follow this lane into Burnham village, past the grammar school on your right. In the village, follow the road round a sharp right-hand bend, keeping The Bee pub on the corner on your right. Take the 5th turning (signed posted ‘Dorneywood 1’) which forks to the right onto Dorneywood Road. Follow the road carefully for about a mile (it is very narrow in places). The entrance to Dorneywood is on the right behind solid black gates. NB: for public open days, parking signs will direct all visitors to the car-parking area.
