Brandon Marsh is an amazing reserve. From the moment I got there I felt welcomed — the staff member on reception was lovely to me and happily told me about the reserve when I explained it was my first time here. There is a cafe and a gift shop, though I didn’t use either. The reserve itself is very well cared for. It is very accessible; there are benches every 5 minutes and the paths and hides looked wheelchair accessible, though I imagine this can become weather dependent. The hides were quite busy earlier in the day, but after noon they seemed to clear out, and I had several hides all to myself. The views from the hides are amazing, and a few had a pair of binoculars supplied by the reserve. Dogs are not allowed on the reserve, apart from assistance dogs.

Lovely walk around, didn’t manage to see much wildlife but hopefully next time I will! Lovely and peaceful walk, very quite hardly seen anyone walking around! £4.75 per person entrance fee. 50ps for a map. Free car park Picnic area at the start. 2 different walks you can do, the meadow walk isn’t very sign posted and felt like we walked in abit of a circle and then had to come Back on our self as no exit the way we walked.

It's a pretty nice spot for an inner-city place near Coventry, but don't go expecting a nature retreat. You could probably explore the whole thing, do some bird watching, and be back at the visitor's center in under an hour. It's got a nice vibe, good for older folks or children. The visitor's center has a decent coffee shop. The ice cream was great, but the iced latte wasn't. You can grab some bird stuff there too.

Lovely place with protected wildlife. A chance to see creatures you don’t see in the city. There’s also bits of artwork, and things for children to do. The trails are advertised as “surfaced” but one part was difficult to get my walker wheels over! They have a mobility scooter that can be hired but it’s in quite high demand; they say they’ve just got funding for another one. The staff member at the visitor centre was very helpful. I look forward to coming back.
