Tips

Dorset Saxon

June 21, 2024

There is a footpath on both sides of Brothers Water & you can access the shoreline on both, but the west shore is where the main path is and has the best access. Here, you can access the beautiful shoreline from the main path, walk along, and then back to the path. It is possible to climb up the bank back to the main path in places, but this is more technical and is not an official path.

(As of June 2024) Rather than park at Cow Bridge car park, which charges around £9 for the day, you can park in Hartsop (NY 40962 13092, East: 340962 North: 513092) , which is currently free. Although they'd very much appreciate a donation to the local primary school (cash box & Q R code available). You can also park at Sykeside Camping Park/Brothers Water Inn for £5 per day.
