    Super walk around 4 lakes. Either side of a road where there's free parking. The wildlife is varied. There are man-made waterfalls ad the sounds of the water and songbirds was idyllic. There's 3 wooden bridges and seating on benches. Took 20 mins to walk around. Not a large park.

    Nice place to take the kids, often see geese, ducks, moorhens, coots and sometimes herons. I took a photo of a king Fisher a few years ago.

    Nice place but a bit small to have a proper walk and digs on lead all the time .

  • 5/5 Andrea R. 7 months ago on Google
    Pretty, well kept lakes full of ducks ..great for taking your children, grandchildren or just yourselves. Cross over the road for an extra little walk. Not very big but perfect for a little picnic.

    Well, this place could be a good space for locals to visit. Not something someone would like to travel to visit. Actually, there are four or five small adjacent lakes (rather say them ponds). Lots of ducs which kids love. Lakes are not that clean. However, Sitting tables available. Quiet place. Parking in the street (free in the weekend).

    What a lovely little place to see the ducks & geese and pass a few minutes on one of the many benches enjoying the Spring sunshine.

  • 4/5 Louisa S. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice little place. Went when locals were doing easter egg hunt and outer children got involved. The area was small and there was a lake and some grassy areas and a walk over some small bridges. Parking restrictions apply on the streets so be mindful. Was a nice little day out with some open space and fresh air and geese.

    Great for a relaxing walk.

    Very pretty park and a nice place to spend having lunch or a gentle walk. Not very large you will walk around the whole lake in at most 30 minutes There are a lot of ducks (at least when I visited in early June) and squirrels. Take some appropriate food such as seeds, grapes or corn to feed them and it is very nice

    Great place to go with kids and take in the beautiful scenery

  • 3/5 Chris S. 2 years ago on Google
    Used to bring my child here to feed the ducks many years ago. First time back here walking the dog for at least ten years. Clearly see that someone is making an effort to clear the place up. Be nice to see the place back to its pristine old self when it was packed with family's. Still haven't fixed the gate latch from when I visited ten plus years ago. Back then my child ran back to the car across the road and my heart sunk when I couldn't catch him in time and a car screeched to a stop narrowly missing him. Please fix the gate latches.

    It's a half decent park which is OK for a short walk around the lakes. It was a beautiful sunny day when I went but it was just lacking something that could make me want to stay around. As you would expect from small lakes that are home to ducks, the water isn't clean and I suppose this would be a contributor to me not wanting to picnic there.

  • 5/5 David D. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a hidden gem! Loads of wildlife, egrets/ducks/geese/herons! Lovely spot for a walk

  • 5/5 Corinna H. 2 years ago on Google
    What a great find this was! Had found this while looking for places to visit near Sevenoaks. A lovely place for a short walk and so many species of ducks to admire, we even saw a heron! Very peaceful and tranquil. We managed to get parked on the side road where there is parking for about 4 cars.

  • 5/5 Muriel L. 2 years ago on Google
    As always, beautiful walks and scenery.

  • 5/5 Sunil K. 3 years ago on Google
    The place is very cool to visit, its a beauty for the residents living nearby and for general public. Parking was not a issue, can park on roads around. Great picnic spot
