What visitors say

Stephen Horsfield

Lovely place indeed. Enjoyed walking here a few times. Parking is reasonable but the ice cream is priced ridiculously high although it was very good.

Lovely walk round the lake. Adviced not tonlet your dogs in the lake due to blue green algae. Lovley little cafe and toilets on site. Not well sign posted but it is a pay car park.

Great country park and ready accessible loop around the tarn. My mum managed well on her mobility scooter and there were people pushing wheelchairs and pushchairs as well today. Dog friendly and a great little tearoom for ice cream!

Nice walk around the lake with tea room and playground for the kids. Walk around the lake took around 30min max. Worth visiting. Tea room is nice and dog friendly.
