This nature reserve features rare tree species, ancient hedgerows, wildflower meadows, the River Eye, and a lake that is teeming with wildlife. People have lived and farmed at Greystones continuously for thousands of years — since the Neolithic (New Stone Age) era, more than 6,000 years ago — and it is the location of one of Europe’s earliest known towns. There are waymarked trails around the reserve to explore, as well as a cafe and other facilities.

Brilliant find thanks to a Komoot member. Nice cafe ran by the Wildlife Trust.

Nice, new café (2018) with fair prices away from the tourist crowds. From here, several paths with attractions, highly recommended!
