周辺の湖・トップ5

Public school-boy favourite for stone-skipping and a spot of fishing on the sly. We had a picnic on the bank - it's a lovely place.

Beautiful lake at the bottom of Stowe Gardens by the main entrance. There is accessible paths all the way around too.

One of the first areas of the garden that visitors may encounter is the Octagon Lake and the features associated with it. The lake was originally designed as a formal octagonal pool, with sharp corners, as part of the seventeenth century formal gardens. Over the years, the shape of the pond was softened, gradually harmonising it within Stowe's increasingly naturalistic landscape. Source: Wikipedia

A very prominent Palladian bridge in the park, it is one of the highlights of this property.

Nice bridge good for crossing water

Stowe can trap you in a time warp and you can walk these grounds for hours. Make sure to begin early, it never disappoints.

Grebe Lake is a former clay pit which was used for the brickworks in the area. Today, it's a popular spot for fishing, boating, kayaking, and sailing. The lake borders the Calvert Jubilee Nature Reserve.

Wonderful site that most of our visitors usually miss. There’s a tunnel behind the cascade that leads into the centre of the lake. Resident bats reside here. Look in and see the pump – which uses water power from the lake to pump spring water around the garden.
