Beautiful place to visit. Great for wildlife. If you're into water sports this is a great place to come. Bring your own kit or hire from the sailing club.

We spent an hour there recently - in the car park - just sitting quietly - enjoying the peace and tranquility of the scenery on a lovely sunny afternoon, while enjoying our sandwiches and juice!
