Ellis tea rooms

Bridge over the reservoir - stunning views.

Managed a very enjoyable ride through Switland Woods on my Rd Bike. But more suited to MBs

From this entrance at Newtown Linford there is a traffic-free, good asphalt drive which descends slowly for 2 miles to the eastern end of the park. But as Ken and others have commented it can get very busy with walkers, especially at weekends. A lovely part of the East Midlands; keep an eye out for the elusive deer.

Just a small diversion from the delightful but popular (ie busy) drive running along the south side of Bradgate Park.

The building across the water, Pool House, is a Grade II listed building.

The first recorded reference to Groby Pool was in 1295, and there is evidence of a mill associated with Groby Pool from that time until the 1900s. The last was a saw mill in Sheet Hedges Wood.

A good place to take a breather and watch the boats. Cotes Road and South Street provide a nice, quiet north - south run avoiding the A6 on the other side of the river.
