Great little nature oasis, car park by the river. Stroll along to the cafe up and accessible roadway. Blue badge holders can park at the cafe. Plenty of bird hides to view the lakes from. Excellent spot

I will start the review by stating that we didn’t actually go into the nature reserve as it says dogs aren’t allowed but AI seemed to think differently when planning our trip and dog stops. It looks like they might be allowed in the fields over the road from Langford Lakes which I think is part of Wylye Down Nature Reserve but this was pretty water logged when we went so didn’t try our luck that way either. From the pictures I’ve see online it looks like a nice place to walk but just be mindful that dogs aren’t allowed on the Langford Lake nature reserve

Beautiful place. Had a lovely little walk. There's free parking with a good amount of spaces. A nice cafe with a beautiful view. It sells coffee and cake. Not a huge menu but ideal area to take a picnic.
