Dogs are allowed but on the lead only. There are picnic tables and benches, but not a huge amount of shade, so make sure you have hats and sunscreen. Whilst your kids enjoy the fresh air, you can settle back and watch. Enjoy a walk around the lake, look at the flowers and wildlife, however don’t let the kids run free as there’s no fence around the water.
