Parking is £7 per car for a full day. No other options for shorter periods. Cafe, toilets, bike hire, laser tag and water sport activities on site. Plenty of space to park on weekends. Great views of the reservoir and access to walking trails.

Owned by the National Trust, there is a lovely view of Lake Field. It was acquired by the National Trust in order to preserve the rural view.

Scenic road with fantastic views over the High Weald including iconic East Sussex and Kent Oust Houses.

A conifer-based woodland just outside the famous town of Battle, where the Battle of Hastings took place, Battle Great Wood is a wonderful place to explore. Will well-maintained trails and a tremendous sense of quiet, you can amble here for hours. The 1066 Country Walk long-distance trail passes right through the centre of the wood, and a wooden sculpture of a crown lies in the heart.

Water bus/taxi takes bikes too. We rode 5.75 miles then called and they picked us up in 5 mins, amazing service and £3 each person. Service runs 9am -5pm. It's around 12 miles all the way round with signs saying to allow 6 hours to walk whole route.

Reasonable parking charge of £3 per car, bike hire, cafe, children’s play area and lovely walks as well as a water bus make this a must visit place!

Bewl Water is a reservoir in the valley of the River Bewl (which is a tributary of the River Teise), straddling the boundary between Kent and East Sussex. It is about 2 miles south of Lamberhurst, Kent, England. The reservoir was part of a project to increase supplies of water in the area. It supplies not only Southern Water’s customers in the Medway towns, Thanet and Hastings, but is also used by other water companies in the area. Work began to construct the reservoir in 1973 by damming and then flooding a valley. It was completed in 1975 having been filled with over 31,300 million litres of water. It is now the largest body of inland water in south east England. In winter, when the flow in the River Medway exceeds 275 million litres per day, river water is pumped to storage in the reservoir. There is an outline plan to raise the water level by a further 3m to increase the yield by up to 30% to help with the growing water demand in south-east England. This will however put further demands on the River Medway to supply the additional water required with the potential for environmental degradation in the river and the eco-systems that it supports. The reservoir in common with most large clean water lakes, is host to a large variety of wildlife
