Such an amazing place right on my doorstep. Having took up my obsession of birding again am so happy to have this place within a ten mins of my doorstep.

Great place for a walk out and to listen nature. Perfect with a packed lunch. Plenty of places to sit and rest or take in the views. We spent a couple of hours and didn’t make it half way round. Kids were enjoying it. Visited over half term and was very quiet. I’d expected to see lots of families but sadly this wasn’t the case. Lots of walkers and bird watchers which was nice to see. Will be back with the lunch bag next time!

Really enjoyed RSPB Middleton Lakes.Takes around 3 hours to walk round if you take your time and stop at different places. Some really lovely trails encompassing many different habitats, from River to Woodlands and of course a very large wetland area. Not forgetting the meadow at the end. Really nice variety of Wildlife to see, personally nice to see the Nuthatch and Dunnock. Unfortunately didn't see the Barn Owl I'm the meadow.Trails are nice and easy to do not too muddy either with the exception of the meadow trail which has some very small muddy bits.All in all a great place to have a walk and see some wildlife!

We love going here! Quiet and peaceful area to walk and observe nature. Yesterday we attended a fungus foray by Wild Beverley which we found to be informative and fun. We enjoy that events like these are offered here. Volunteers have always been nice and helpful. Parking is available, picnic tables, and a small shop where you can purchase drinks. There are no toilets on site but there are toilets at MIddleton Hall Courtyard along with a few shops which is within walking distance. You can also purchase RSPB memberships on site!

Lovely reserve. Small visitor centre and nearby toilets and shops with cafe (where you can get a discount with RSPB card).Check woods over road across from visitor centre for Lesser Spotted Woodpeckers.Do ask staff on best locations to see birds.Reserve has 2 parts, long straight walk past Heron tree and Rookery. Loads of close up song birds are especially good for young children.After about 15 minutes you cross the bridge to a wall of noise from nesting Black Headed Gulls on the scrapes.There is a hide and look out points.Hopefully you will hear the booming Bittern and countless Warblers.A full walk around the reserve will take a couple of hours. You will need refreshments and good bladder.Well worth it though.

Great variety of habitats and birds to see. The path through the woods is not wheelchair accessible, but the most other areas are. I do think the woodland area could do with an updated hard/flat path with suitable drainage (or even a boardwalk), considering that the only way to the other areas in via the woodland (-1 star for limited accessibility)There is a little shop near the car park. The person working there on Sun 11 July 23 was fantastic.
