Harrold Country Park

Large laked country park, lots of parking and bushes wooded areas, plus a couple of bird hides. Also on right of entrance way is huge field used by dog walkers etc, has a slightly smaller lake and wooded area and river access, sometimes has cows in there but they are harmless. Has a small cafe which is well used but also has toilets there, so try your luck in them, no (yet!)

The guide

Where exactly

From Bedford to Carlton through Pavenham, as you come down the hill in to Carlton, continue straight on past Royal Oak pub and round a set of bends, then you come to a narrow bridge with traffic lights. Go over bridge and park enterence is 200 yards on your right opposite the cricket field.

When to go

Anytime, just watch out for people by the Cafe, go further up on right hand side of lake for bird hides and wooded areas. Better in early evening night time.

Etiquette

As above, bird hide and wooded areas on right hand side of lake.

Nudity: probably not safe, but if you find a quiet spot go for it, the park is large enough to lose yourself

Safety

Park is well used by locals, dog walkers etc
