About this walk

Draycote Water is a 650 acre reservoir set high in the rolling Warwickshire countryside that has a tarmac road perfect for walking, running or cycling. There is also a children’s play area, a restaurant, ice cream kiosk, sailing club and fishery. There is a flat five mile tarmac pavement around the reservoir which is ideal for a leisurely stroll. The 24 acre country park provides plenty of space to play games and enjoy the outdoors. The Hensborough hill top provides spectacular views and is a great place for a picnic. Your furry friend can’t be walked around the reservoir we’re afraid, but the 24 acre Country Park allows for a short dog walk.

    Walking in general is fine but parking can be hard if you don’t get there early and dogs cant really go around much - which is a shame as he reservoir walk would be lovely with them

    It's a shame dogs aren't allowed around lake it's a lovely walk . I wonder who payed for the reservoir so who makes the Link → the tax payer might have had something to do with it and most of them had a dog 🐶
