Really lovely spot on the edge of Stoke on Trent. Great place to park and enjoy a ramble around the reservoir and beyond.
What an absolutely gorgeous place.
We had been to two other lovely places on previous days and were looking for something else for our last day in Stoke on Trent.
This topped the week off beautifully.
Lovely, lovely walks with plenty of interest in different areas, like an arboretum, a wardens tower, that was closed off, for very good reason, as it was an area for some of our endangered bat species to roost without disturbance.
The reservoir was teeming with Canadian geese, tufted ducks and mallards. One area had three bird species, at least, that I had not seen in the wild before. I was delighted to see that someone was feeding them, whilst taking photos, and this gave me opportunity to photograph them myself.
Stunning place that I would highly recommend.
Such a stunning place to walk.
The beautiful nature is just outstanding here
Nice mixture of flat-ish gravel/pathway walks and more off-track routes (some November muddy trails - boots needed!). Can spend an hour - or a few - taking it all in. Relaxing, wonderful scenery, lots to see - including the Warden’s Tower, a (smallish) waterfall and highly recommended and mythical Gawton’s Well (“the most spiritual place in Staffordshire”). Even as a sceptic, there is a vibe around that area!
A lovely place for an afternoon stroll, you might only find fishermen and dog walkers on your journey. I saw very little litter and the dog walkers cleared up after their dogs.The pictures tell the story
Lovely place, very clean and paths relatively well kept. Visit the waterfall if you have chance. Great place to see wildlife - robins were out today and very friendly.
Lovely walk. 2 routes round. One smaller pool with another attached to make a bigger walk. It does state dogs on leads however I've seen plenty off. My dog loves it there.
Take the dogs for their walks here quite regular. Beautiful place, great trails, loads of wildlife. However, the amount of dog poo bags that get left either in the bushes or hanging on trees is disapointing. There are bins on the car parks for the disposal of this waste.
