    Lovely place; l felt very happy here, and enjoyed my walk, on paths visible and not so visible. The place has a free carpark with available spaces. Sure, I am going to visit the place more often 😊

    Well kept corner of mother nature. Very clean beach but not very wheelchair friendly. Never the less id go again n again.
  • By Ramona Popa On October 2, 2017
    Wonderful walking around a long beach. Bonus is a small waterfall, if you had plenty of rain before

    Just love this Nature Reserve - it's a real shame that the hide has been vandalised...
  • By Alex Shepherd On May 30, 2017
    Great National Nature Reserve with many rare and interesting species. Too many free running dogs for me though since the onset of professional dog walkers.
