What a lovely day we had here. Easy flat walk from the carpark. We took a picnic and a picnic blanket and found a nice shady spot over looking the pond, sat a while and enjoyed watching ducks, herons, dragonflies and fish popping their heads up now and then. People were walking the paths with their dogs but mostly we were undisturbed. A short walk later we were at the Heritage Centre where we had a lovely cuppa and cake. We will definitely return.

My girlfriend loves horses so we wanted to try and find some wild ponies and May Hill was suggested. A lovely walk to the top of May hill, down the other side, back round to the car park. Ticked off ponies, cows, stunning views and a beautiful woodland walk. Lovely spot and a nice way to spend an hour or so walking.

Lovely area to walk , we walked Slimbridge to the junction and back around 10 miles . Lovely scenery with Severn estuary on one side and the beautiful canal life the other .. we saw loads of swans with their young which was lovely . Stopped for a nice ice lolly too . Locals were friendly and respectful of distancing .

We arrived about 3pm on Easter Sunday and managed to park easily. The sun was shining and the lake looked absolutely beautiful. A lovely walk around with bridges, perfect for little legs. They even have rules stating it’s a walking path only, nothing against cyclists of course but it was nice knowing you were less likely to have to give way to bikes. After our lap of the lake my little one was itching to get in the water. There was ample shallow paddling areas for children to play in and two rope swings. There was also an ice cream van to use if you’re so inclined. It was buzzing with activity yet everyone appeared conscious of social distancing. We’re 100% going to return for longer with a picnic in the near future. Thanks FOD for another beautiful, well maintained area :)
