It’s a beautiful reservoir but the car park is for anglers only just so people are aware it’s not a public car park and you can’t really walk around the res as it’s for fishing but definitely worth a drive through to see the beautiful landscape.

Hard standing car park for at least 20 cars. Parking is free, the car park is also used for the reservoir fishing club. There are no amenities here and no footpaths so you do have to travel on foot using the road to access the reservoir.
