RSPB St Aidan's
Nature preserve
ππ Absolutely beautiful scenery, lovely to walk round (choose your route carefully, the long route is a lot further than it looks!) Plenty of parking for Β£4 all day, or if it's busy you can park on the road outside. Friendly staff in the little cafe which is reasonable.
Lots of birds to see, depending...

Bower's Lake
Nature preserve
ππ Lovely spot for a wild swim, warm, calm water with shallow edges and a gentle gradient in.
I've been coming here for some time, and they've just installed a very handy bike & clothes drying rack neatly camouflaged as a nonsensical signpost
