Pennington Flash Country Park

Reviewed By tacky57

Lovely relaxing & scenic place to take the family (dogs allowed on a leash) to see a bit of nature (bring some bread to feed the ducks) & have a picnic etc, there are facilities to buy food & hot & cold drinks too & toilets on the park. Plenty of room for cars in the park & for kids to play football. You can park overlooking the lake if you prefer to sit in the car in case of a shower.

Really enjoyed the exhibit and the gallery. Really pleasant experience. Spent an hour here considering the art left largely undisturbed. Perfect
