Facilities & Car Parking
Home to a delicious café filled with light bites and tasty snacks, all visitors are welcome to enjoy a spot of lunch at the Waterfront Café or bring a picnic and enjoy far-reaching views of the reservoir from one of our many seating areas.
Showers, toilets and changing areas are available in the Boat House, which you are welcome to use, and there are also several campsite pitches for those of you who’d like to turn your visit into a weekend away.
