However, Blashford Lakes Nature Reserve covers 360 acres and offers guided and self-guided walks, excellent bird watching opportunities and regular wildlife activities for families. It’s a great place for all the family to enjoy nature, as there’s always plenty to see.

We continue to review our position daily and will keep customers and communities fully informed via our website, social media channels as well as through the media.
