What visitors say
Beautiful place to go for a walk, fresh air and burn off steam with the kids. Our stroll with the dog. The swans and ducks and nature all looked so beautiful too. Well looked after. The cafe was good, coffee delicious and prices reasonable. There's a couple of toilets which are a significant upgrade from the shack there was on my last visit a few years back. Well done! There's a play park too which my 3 enjoyed and plenty benches scattered about to sit while you wait or simply too catch your breath. Will go again.

Lovely place to walk and you can also pick up the canal. Purchased a sandwich and drink in the cafe there which was a generous portion and served with a smile

Sit down dip your feet in water and just observe the nature and birds you will learn alot about how birds live there naturally and how they interact with each other. Just give yourself one hour without a phone or any other distraction. Silence of one hour., thank me later.
