"Special Rates" £20 for 30 minute session. Monday - Wednesday. She tells me it's £75 for me and 2 kids...

Astley Lake
Wildlife refuge
👍👍 Terrific place to go birding but can be spoilt by dog-walkers who allow their mutts to charge about without respect to other users and the fact that it is a nature reserve. Schedule One species often disturbed by their antics.

I understand they have over head costs etc but this is clearly a standard charge and set fee. This should be made c...
