Bird watching
Osprey have been spotted at Naseby Reservoir on more than one occasion as well as many other bird species. Bring a pair of binoculars so you can sit on the verandah and enjoy the array of birds, deer and other wildlife as the sun sets!
Walking
It is possible to walk around the reservoir, but please note it can get rather muddy and is not wheelchair or pushchair friendly!
