From the Wigan road car park it takes a good 10 minutes to get to the main area of the park but is well worth it. We spent about 1 and a half hours here but that included a stop in the coffee shop for tea and cake. Marley and Daisy were very happy with plenty of wooded areas to sniff and ponds and steams to paddle and swim in. Everyone we met was very friendly both on the walk and in the Sue Ryder coffee shop both the tea and coffee cake was delicious and would recommend a welcome refreshment break.
