Another great place to stop on a long bike ride. The visitor centre features a lovely cafe with handmade hot sandwich options and a terrace with a view over the reservoir (locals say you can see some nice wildlife here). Oh, and there's some bike parking at the entrance (although the place appears pretty safe).
