200-acre reserve with varied terrain & walking paths, known as a bird-watching destination.
Came here for a Sunday morning walk at about 11 and there was plenty of space in the car park. This place is very big and quite wild - which we really enjoyed. We walked for about an hour and a half and barely saw any other humans. Lots of places to watch birds at the edge of the water and some beautiful flowers in bloom everywhere. Will definitely come back.
Very beautiful. Saw lots of dragonflies, geese, butterflies and a couple of buzzards. We got lost though, so if you go, use an app to mark your trail!
Spent a good couple of hours walking the dog here it was nice strolling along listening to the birds. Prepare for muddy feet in the colder winter season and as i do always have a towel for the dog in the car. Lots of little trails to follow and great for kids but be aware near waters even though fenced off some are broken with felled trees etc. Car park small and free but will hold approx 20 cars if parked properly but is very pot holey so if you have a low car be aware , there is a side road that will hold plenty of cars this is better for the low car. It is a nature reserve so has hides and it great for the bird watcher/photographer they have seating and a shelf for your camera while looking out over a big span of water and a good zoom lens is needed to get close ups. P.S. No toilets or cafe at this one.
Nice place for a walk any time of year. Beware the angry mosquitos in summer though.
So calm and peaceful some paths are flooded so take notes of closed signs
Entrance to the nature reserve is free. There are several natural lakes with purpose built hides for serious twitchers, with a good variety of bird species. Away from the water, there are several different routes for decent walks. There are no retail outlets, so take a picnic or a flask if you're going for the day. A lovely, peaceful respite from the hurly burly of life.
