    One of the worst walks we've ever been on there's a path all the way around a relatively small fishing lake it's covered in algae and looks generally unloved, the cyclists don't slow down and are obviously furious you dare be there we drove 25mins to get here absolutely not worth the time

    Brilliant walk, especially in summer. Flat, even, surfaced paths make it accessible for everyone, and it's quite scenic.

    Easy flat walk on paths. Pleasant area, easy access. Some interesting waterfowl on the lake.

    This is a lovely short walk, but keep your dog on a lead if they like chasing ducks! Free car park with little cafe if you fancy a cuppa afterwards.
