JCB Lakeside Walk

If you are staying in the village, even if you are not much of a walker, take a stroll round the lake in front of JCB World HQ and enjoy a view of the Weaver Hills and other beautiful scenery. You can also see many waterbirds that choose to make the lake their home, including black swans (and sometimes their cygnets!)
