A really nice walk, the swans where there with there babies, park for the kids, a big lake, fishing, cafe on site and a place for the dogs to drink
Start with a suggestion, check if it was raining the day before,if yes make sure you take appropriate shoes,some places about slippery, walked around ,nice views, lake saw some people fishing,lots of ducks,and birds,good for bird watching, passed by a play group area,not big but enough.There is a caffe and toilets,good for dog walkers,a few there. A good place to pass a few hours.
This is a fantastic country park. Lots of parking. The food is nice at the cafe and you find your own space. You will want to visit again. Nice for a quick walk up and down, all fairly easy if you stick to the canal path. The cafe does some great food and ice cream. Toilets available with free parking. Gets busy at the weekend!
What a lovely place to walk and finish with a sandwich and a brew. A friend and I went for a walk to the country park, I hadn't been before and was pleasantly surprised. Lots to see and do and places to stop and take in the beautiful area, my friend who knew Daisy Nook filled me in with the history of the area and this made it more interesting to me, I would suggest to call in the cafe and pick up one of the leaflets however there is information boards on the walks. We ended with a brew and a tasty sandwich in the interesting cafe which I thought how lovely looking at all the interesting pictures and Nik naks on display. I am looking forward to going back in better weather and seeing all in the sun.
It was our first time walking around Daisy Nook, despite having lived in Oldham all my life. We walked just over 2 miles in total. Starting off in Stannybrook Car Park, walked up the main trail, up to Crime Lake, and back round Sammy's Basin. Daisy Nook is beautiful I would highly recommend. Excellent for photographers and walkers alike. I believe they have Kingfishers there although we sadly didn't see any today. Parking is free, and there is a cafe onsite. Suitable footwear is advised, as even though it was a dry day, the rain from the night before had caused some big puddles along the side of the river.
