Nestled in rolling rural Northamptonshire, Pitsford Water offers something for everyone. A lovely blend of woodland, meadow and grassland, there are stunning views over the water, making it a great setting for walking, cycling, fishing, sailing, watersports and birdwatching. And with a well-marked, hard-surfaced seven-mile waterside track, you’ll have a great day out whatever your ability. In partnership with Brixworth Country Park, just a stone’s throw away, we’re the ideal spot for a leisurely stroll, a picnic, or a family day out.

Ideal place for walks, cycle rides, wildlife spotting and family picnics. Circular, well-marked hard surfaced trails through woodlands meadows and grassland with far reaching views over the water. Also a nice cafe, a visitor centre and a great play area for the children.

Beautiful 6-7 mile walk around Pitsford. Only a 5 minute drive from the site.

Approximately 7 miles walk and cycle around one section of the reservoir, cycles can be hired at the centre. Excellent trout fishing can be booked via the lodge.
