A lovely little walk; not too many people about at this time of year. It’s a shame about people’s lack of consideration – there’s quite a lot of litter.

A lovely little walk with some beautiful photos to take home as souvenirs. We went in November and came back to the car park with our shoes covered in mud; we didn’t see many people, but I reckon when the warmer weather arrives, lots of people must come here… and they’re absolutely right to do so.

Hello! I’m not sure if it’s officially allowed, but I wouldn’t be surprised if some people took theirs for a swim. In any case, I haven’t found any information on the subject.

Glad you enjoyed this outing!
That’s a good point – there aren’t many spots like this in the area, so they’re very popular once the warmer weather returns!

A very pleasant route now that the hot weather is setting in. However, it’s best to avoid going at the weekend as the path is narrow and it gets very busy!
