Keynes Country Park
Cotswold Country Park and Beach (formerly
Keynes Country Park) is the first place to stop on a visit to the Cotswold Water
park. Situated between Swindon and Cirencester close to the village of
Somerford Keynes the award winning park offers 2˝ miles of lakeside
walks, cycling, two children's play areas, sites for family barbecues,
a swimming beach and boating available and the Millenium Centre
house's a small café and exhibition room. Refreshments can also be
purchased from the "The Shack" a decked area close to the
swimming beach. Close by is a nature reserve with a hide for bird
watchers.
The Cotswold Water Park is the largest area of man-made lakes in
Britain and are the remains of many years of gravel extraction. The
gravel is still extracted today and the park will continue to grow
in size and become a haven for many species of waterfowl of which over
20,000 overwinter here now.
There are several nature reserves throughout the park and several hides
for bird watching have been built by the Cotswold Water Park Society.
