Ness Woods Radio Report BBC Radio Foyle went down to Ness Woods and spoke to warden of the visitor's centre Seamus Cartan.
The centre opened in July 2009 and was built to replicate an old Irish cottage. The wildlife friendly cottage garden at the front has proved a hit with the visitors and teams with insect life from butterflies to damselflies. They have also planted a small orchard with old Irish apple varieties, planted 5,000 native trees and have a paddock housing some rare breed sheep.
Some of the walks are wheelchair and push chair friendly with access along the river and to the two ponds.
