Good access from A52 via Adbolton Lane, with a couple of large car parks (monitored by ANPR) pay via "ParkPCM" Parking app. Peaceful area to the South East of the National Watersports Centre, the area is awash with Wild Rabbits, some nice natural woodland paths to explore.

The Holme Pierrepont Country Park is home to the national water sports centre. There is a long boating lake used for water sport racing and swimming/triathlon events. There is also a multi-user trail around the lake and footpaths exploring the 270-acre country park away from the lake shores. The lakeside trail gets busy with events or families and bikes at weekends, but the footpaths are never too busy for a nice walk.

The café in the national water sports centre serves sandwiches, light meals, snacks and drinks with a great view of the lake. It's open on weekends and school holidays.
