About this walk

Lovely place to walk your dog with lots of other dog walkers. Plenty of room to let your dog off the lead. Grassed area near fishing lake around which you need to keep your dog on lead between June and September but this doesn't spoil your trip. Lots of woodland. Small deer have been spotted. Small refreshments shop and water in bowls usually outside for dogs. Children's play area recently developed there also. Absolutely acres of it. Can also watch bats and do other tours of the park.

    Got a bit lost 🤣 as I thought not enough directions at the begging.. In places good enough for the balance bike if you have toddlers. Saw some den building places. Lak3 in the middle that is on lead area jun- September and can't be used for dog swimming at all times
