Talkin Tarn Country Park
Unwind in the sylvan setting of Talkin Tarn, a ‘kettle-hole' lake set in 120 acres of country park and woodland.
Take a rowing boat out on the lake, feed the ducks, browse artworks at the Boathouse Gallery or enjoy a 1.3 mile (2 km) circuit of the tarn followed by refreshments at the Boathouse Tearoom with its superb views over the tarn.
The lakeside circuit is suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs, and a children's play area can be found next to the tearoom. Open all year (but tearoom may be closed on certain days during the winter).
