Went there on bike rode around the trails, there were more places for hikers if that's what you like, steps and trails. Opens at 9 i think and a cafe at one entry another car park at other side, running streams, woodland trails, geese, ducks, various birds, apparently deer someone said but I didnt see any. Also a lot of friendly dog walkers/families because it was a warmish day. Worth a visit. Went to alexandra park nearby afterwards and was also impressed.

This is a fantastic country park. Lots of parking. The food is nice at the cafe and you find your own space. You will want to visit again. Nice for a quick walk up and down, all fairly easy if you stick to the canal path. The cafe does some great food and ice cream. Toilets available with free parking. Gets busy at the weekend!

What a lovely place to walk and finish with a sandwich and a brew. A friend and I went for a walk to the country park, I hadn't been before and was pleasantly surprised. Lots to see and do and places to stop and take in the beautiful area, my friend who knew Daisy Nook filled me in with the history of the area and this made it more interesting to me, I would suggest to call in the cafe and pick up one of the leaflets however there is information boards on the walks. We ended with a brew and a tasty sandwich in the interesting cafe which I thought how lovely looking at all the interesting pictures and Nik naks on display. I am looking forward to going back in better weather and seeing all in the sun.
