I parked in the small parking area by the bridge near Hardwater Mill (free) but having walked along the road I would suggest avoiding this section. It would be better to start from the Summer Leys Nature reserve car park (paid) or the very small parking area in Mary's Lane (free) where it crosses the disused railway line.

Lovely cafe serving a good variety of coffee, cake, breakfast and lunch. Plenty of seating inside and out.

Excellent viewpoint across the water and high chances of spotting some local birdlife such as little egret, cormorant and heron.

A great spot to check out the local waterbird life. Expect to find the likes of Canada Goose, Ring-necked Pheasant and Great Crested Grebe

Take a seat on the grass and enjoy the wonderful views across the reservoir.

Gentle hill climb, good view of the Castle and a nice coffee and cake at the cafe Little shops nice to look round too

A pumphouse converted cafe with a lovely picnic area which makes for a great spot to grab a refreshment.

No cycling around reservoir

Someone has thoughtfully left a seat here - handy for lunch stop - it's actually further along the bridleway at the junction where it turns toward Harold.

Pleasant wooded glade with a small pond.

We did the 3.63 mile loop from Harrold Odell county park. It's a fab park and route, although you'll need wellies after a wet winter! There is also a lot of farmland in the area and we heard bird scarers almost the whole way round, even walking through the village, so if you're bringing a dog with a noise aversion, you may want to keep them on the lead.

Harrold is a picturesque Bedfordshire village on the banks of the River Great Ouse. The village enjoys a prime location on the edge of the Harrold-Odell Country Park, which comprises two large lakes, parkland and water meadows. The village is notable for its ancient bridge, which spans the river and connects to an equally ancient causeway to the village of Carlton.

Stopped here for a cold drink and spot of lunch from the Deli which has an amazing array of locally sourced and produced stock, with some nice unusual items and a small indoor seating area for eating in. Next door there is The Buttery which is a great traditional tea room with table service and a wide range of food and drinks available. There is also a quirky antiques shop, worth a look if for nothing more than the unusual musical boxes and clocks on sale, but i'm sure you could find something there as it's such an eclectic mix of vintage, retro and kitsch. Limeblue sells gifts, jewellery and leather goods, so perfect for picking up a gift or memento on a ride. Tredders is a footware specialist and sell a range of high quality footware, there are also other shops specialising in clothing, furniture, soft furnishings and decorative items. So all in all a great little place to stop on a ride and have an explore but make sure you have some money as I doubt you will want to walk away empty handed (or empty bellied!)

Pleasant walk. Well used. Wildlife if the weather not great.
