Great little nature reserve about 10 mins from Lincoln city. It's quite small, the car park is not in a great way and floods easily, There is also a height barrier. When you enter the woodland, if you go right you will end up at the bird viewing area. It's half hut shape with various viewing windows of the lake area. The lake is often filled with a wide variety of birds to watch and photograph. If you go to the left and walk the main path you will end up at the river in about 20 mins, where there is a Jetty and a bridge. Again lots of wildlife in this area, a barn owl likes to visit this spot regularly. When I went last there was only one other person there. I saw deer, barn owl, a mumeration, swans and other birds. Great quiet spot for photographers and bird watchers.

Nice spot. Hide is well made and a decent car park. Nobody has taken any of the sloes, so if you're a sloe gin fan get down and make your own!
