Stunning picturesque village by the River Ouse

At the end of the route before sunset, we found this part of the lake where the views were amazing. Take time to sit and enjoy. There are so many benches on this part.

Just on the left before the traffic light at the bridge good cafe inner room if you need more heat great coffee

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.

Sharnbrook is a typically pretty North Bedfordshire village, with its older buildings built from the region's archetypal oolitic limestone. Set on the banks of the River Great Ouse, it is surrounded by pleasant trails in lovely countryside. It is within walking distance of the beautiful Harrold-Odell Country Park and its two gorgeous lakes. Also worth exploring are the pockets of woodland that surround the village and the Felmersham Gravel Pits, which boasts a rich diversity of wetland and grassland.
