Thrybergh Country Park is perfect for a Sunday walk. The loop around the reservoir is about 2 miles, flat and scenic with great views over the water. So many birds here — ducks, swans, geese, and we even spotted a heron last time. Bring some bird seed and the kids will love it.

It's a lovely country park with friendly, helpful staff. There's a flexi-pave path and a changing places bathroom making this both welcoming and accessible. The cafe menu is limited, but all freshly made and reasonably priced. The revamped play area was being appreciated by plenty of kids and the BBQ area will be well used into the warmer weather. I just hope the camping area opens again.

Lovely place for a dog walk. 1 lap is only 1 and 3/4 of a mile. The only negative is the parking £2.70 for 1 hour or £3.10 for anything longer (up to 11 hours). I would therefore recommend Manvers lake as they offer free parking (but it does mean it's quite a but busier in comparison).
