가장 멋진 호수 6곳

I can only agree with the last tip. We have had less than stellar service recently, not felt especially welcome and the cycle provision is not good. As recommended head onto the Dovecote at Moreton. If you get a coffee the cafe is the best for quality but you have to drink it in the Cafe. When we asked to have our coffee in a flask they were not keen. Sculptures and grounds are lovely, let down by cafe

The "Fort on the Lake" in East Lulworth is a folly, a building built for decorative effect rather than a practical purpose, located on the edge of a lake created for model boat testing. The lake itself was built by Joseph Weld in the 1830s and the fort was built in 1851. The fort was originally intended to house a model 12-gun brig of war, but it was sadly dismantled and no longer exists. The folly remains as a decorative feature on the wild lake.

Poole is Europe's largest natural harbour and a stunning location for all types of watersports fringed with unspoilt woodland and coastal walks. The harbour is a site of nature conservation, a wetland teeming with wading birds with many international protections in place.

Beautiful spot, on a sunny day could almost think you are in the Caribbean

Did you know that this lake was built in 1837 for model-boat testing for the Admiralty? Furthermore, on this shore, you can observe the fort that was also constructed shortly thereafter.

Has a number of trails and a play park with a fairies door tail for the younger ones. the tea rooms dose breakfast before 10 am

one the most magnificent and unique sculpture parks in the UK. no children under 14. good cafe and restaurant

An outstanding sculpture park set in twenty-six acres of beautiful Dorset countryside. Created as an oasis for art lovers and collectors alike by renowned sculptor Simon Gudgeon and his wife, Monique. Superb cafe and restaurant, no entrance charge if just visiting the cafe, shop, gallery etc

There’s even several bike lock installations at the end of the bridleway, so you can leave you’re bike safely rather than take it onto the sandy beach.

Best avoided if you are looking for a sandwich or light bite lunch, best to carry on to the Walled Garden 2 miles away at Moreton, lovely freshly prepared sandwiches etc and very friendly helpful staff. The cafe is highly pretentious and was a complete waste of time serving only four or five main meals ~£12 per meal with no indication of accompaniments or drinks menu. If you want sandwiches or something light it is pre-made pre-packed from a takeaway pantry and there is nowhere to sit down to eat them. The bike racks are useless wheelbending hoops , not even bolted down and hence failing my insurance requirements for an ebike to lock to an immovable object. I am sure the sculptures are stunning unfortunately we were so put off we decided against viewing or returning at a later date.

If stopping for refreshments and wanting something on the snack side go the takeaway but if having a coffee use the cafe - much better than the help yourself machine.

Great for a quick dip before heading to the station

Lovely grounds - you can pay full entrance and take it all in. Or just stop for a break - really nice views to go with good food. £££. Note - no dogs and no one aged under 14 admitted.

Great views and lots of birds to be seen, Several hides. And when you have finished there is a RSPB shop andcafe to enjoy. Both pretty good.

Nice quiet little beach, perfect for a picnic. RSPB ask you to use cycle racks so as not to disturb wildlife or you can just carry your bike the last 25m or so!

Great views over the harbour.

http://www.sculpturebythelakes.co.uk Can now comment on the full Lakes experience as we enjoyed an afternoon there. We really enjoyed walk around looking at the old fishing lakes and artwork - very relaxed although a bank holiday not too busy. River Froome pretty impressive too. Really nice lunch. ££ not cheap at £10 a head. Note: No dogs and no Under 14s permitted allowed in.
