Great place for walkers, cyclists, horse-riders and the old and young naturalist alike. Excellent access and visitor facilities. Owner: The National Trust
Be sure to use the stairs when climbing up/down to the reservoir , especially if it's been raining! The hill is very steep and can get very muddy and slippery. I found out the hard way!
Lots of really nice walks. Lovely little cafe and nice toilets . Plenty of parking as well ☺️
Visit on a weekend day during the winter and the visitor centre will be open for hot drinks and good food.
Pink route is great but a steep climb towards the waterfall
Treat yourself to a bacon sandwich at Pine Tops cafe on the way back down :) - Mat W

Blue badge holders may be able to park close to the tearoom. Not only is there (lovely) food and drink, but also a selection of second hand books for sale. These are very reasonably priced. - Sarah Louise Ward
