A lovely afternoon spent watching a small herd of fallow deer peacefully grazing, along with a good variety of bird-life. A tranquil spot for nature enthusiasts. Just a word of caution when exiting—the top bar of the access gate is wrapped in barbed wire and can catch you by surprise if you're not paying attention.

Lovely little nature reserve, free entry with large car park, three hides overlooking a pond, field and a bit of Marsh land, a woodland walk with benches at viewing points, bird feeders. Plenty of fallow deer about. Came here a few times while staying at a nearby holiday park, both times we had the place to our selves. Lovely and quiet.

A new one for us. It was great!! Good variety of birds and a herd of fallow deer. A very cold day and all of the ponds were frozen over. Definitely one to return to when it's a bit warmer.

Such a lovely place to see the local wildlife. Deer, raptors, lots of birds and an Osprey!
