This Lovely Walk Is Around A Reservoir And Takes About An Hour And A Half To Complete. It Has The Water One Side Of The Path And On The Other Is Fields Which Are Fenced Off. There Are Gateways Throughout Separating The Walk Into Sections, Which Is Good For Dogs That Don't Like To Come Back!! There's A Café At The Entrance, A Kids Play Area (Dogs Not Allowed In There), And Poo Bins Around The Site So That You Don't Have To Carry The Bags All The Way Around. Parking Is £3 At The Moment.
