A great venue for riding. You can session the smooth flowing trails hit some of the rougher black routes or spend a whole day cruising and exploring the forest. It runs year round and the trails hold up well. There's a lot in a compact area which makes it great socially too.
The off piste stuff that probably doesn't count in this competition. There's a reason Hamsterley gave us a british world champion downhiller.
More trails (as everywhere really). Make some of the off piste stuff more official to keep up with the times.
