The entire park was closed for the setting up of an event when I visited

Ferry Meadows Visitor Centre Just a little tip for anyone using the caravan site next door: The visitor centre shop is a brilliant place to grab supplies. It has a lovely farm shop section with local produce, perfect for stocking up on tasty treats. They also have a good selection of small toys and gifts, which is handy if you need to keep the kids entertained!

Gunwade Lake at Ferry Meadows is a fantastic spot for a flat and scenic run. If you're a runner, I highly recommend checking it out! The path is wide and well-maintained, and you'll often see lots of other runners and walkers, making it a really friendly and motivating place to be. It’s perfect for working on your pacing and enjoying the beautiful views. #running #FerryMeadows #GunwadeLake #runnertip

The Bottle Lodges at Burghley House are a pair of distinctive gatehouses located at the entrance to the estate, built in 1801 to commemorate the Earl of Exeter's elevation to the marquessate.

Popular cafe, often busy but has plenty of outdoor seating where you can sit with your bike.

The pictures don’t do it justice

A real pleasure hiking here, I've done on the weekend, It is a vast place where anybody can enjoy walking, cycling or just sitting on the grass for a picnic. I've seen so many people doing diferent things and everything far away from the city centre in the middle of nature

Good stopping point on this route, shaded by trees , time to cool down, take a sip from your drink bottle, munch a bar, and contemplate the meaning of John Clare's words. Meditate upon his greatest wish to be at home with family and friends as he anticipates his death but note his optimism when, though linking death to winter, he draws on the symbolism of the evergreen laurel and plays with the word "leaves". And so by now it is time for you to leave and hope you are not to be further occupied waiting for a train at the Helpston crossing. Happy Cycling - its lovely country.

Scenic bridge providing a quiet route over the Welland into Deeping.

There are 2 pubs near the bridge and a couple of cafes in village centre within 1/4 mile. Get a coffee and sit by the river for a good rest stop.

Situated in Ferry Meadows, a visitor centre, gift & farm shop.

Take care here. The bridge has a blind crest and is narrow (cars width) so be prepared to stop and don't try and squeeze by

Part of Nene Park, Ferry Meadows is a hive of activity and relaxation. Gunwade Lake, Overton and Lynch Lake make for a beautiful setting for a run, not far from the centre of Peterborough. There is a cafe, bus stops and car parking so it also makes for a good start/end point for a run along the River Nene.

The Bottle Lodges were built in 1801 to celebrate the Earl’s elevation to the title of 1st Marquess of Exeter. They are based on the surviving lodges for Old Campden Manor, Chipping Campden, built around 1613.

Gunwade Lake in Ferry Meadows is a popular place for outdoor activity. Kayaks and canoes are available to hire, there is a 400m open water swimming loop and highly renowned fishing. There is also a cafe by the car park, The Lakeside Kitchen & Bar.

The Bottle Lodges mark the original horse & coach entrance to Burghley House from the Great North Road.

The Packhorse Bridge at Deeping St. James was built in 1651, just after the English Civil War. The bridge is narrow, with refuge ledges either side of the bridge for pedestrian safety. A marker on the side of the bridge indicates the high level of the water during the floods of 1880.

The rather grand Bottle Lodges form the gateway to Burghley House, the original route for horse and coaches coming in off the Great North Road.

A few highlights in Helpston village. Phone box library, buttercross (folk would lay wares for sale on the steps), and the birthplace of and memorial to John Clare, Poet (13 July 1793 – 20 May 1864). (Wikipedia) The son of a farm labourer, he became known for his celebrations of the English countryside and sorrows at its disruption.[1] His poetry underwent major re-evaluation in the late 20th century: he is now often seen as a major 19th-century poet.[2] His biographer Jonathan Bate called Clare "the greatest labouring-class poet that England has ever produced. No one has ever written more powerfully of nature, of a rural childhood, and of the alienated and unstable self."
