What visitors say
Parking is expensive at £5 (free if National Trust member) but that’s one set price and you don’t pay anything for entry, so it’s totally worth it. Signal is terrible so if you can’t get on Ringo, go to the cabin to pay. We went through the exhibitions (small, interactive, quick but lovely) then down to a beautiful bookshed! The shed has lots of preloved books that are so wonderful and peculiar! The money raised from the sale of books goes towards the riverways. We didn’t have time to do the walk too sadly but apparently it’s beautiful. There is a tearooms with toilets & a garden.

Hired a tandem kayak with my partner for one hour. The man in charge was very friendly and went through kayaking technique and safety, and he kept our valuables safe in a locker. The river was very quiet with minimal disruption from other boats.
