What visitors say
Late afternoon arrival and a visitor to the area. Hot day but shaded and cool walk around the wooded area. Plenty of dog walkers and cyclists using the routes. Beautiful scenery specially around the lake. Overall a nice walk, signage around the route could be improved slightly. Parking was ok but could envision the carpark being full on busy days.

Very beautiful park to enjoy a nice walk. The lake is also beautiful with a lot of fauna and flora to explore. The surroundings have different trails so you can enjoy nature for a good time.Very recommended

Rooms very small, good good but basic. Grounds were stunning though, lovely location!

As others have said, a lovely country park and a great little cafe helping young adults with learning disabilities. All very impressive until you need a comfort break and then no paper, no soap and when I mentioned this to the ladies in the main cafe, I was told to complain to Swindon Council… they were volunteers and it wasn’t their job - shame, because that’s we remember from that visit - I’d have thought ensuring the toilet facilities at least had some supplies would be in your interest? Apparently not.
