The Blue Pool

An azure blue slice of heaven!!Our first visit to this little section of paradise and it most certainly won't be the last!! It's an hour or so's trip from our home and worth every minute behind the wheel.It is so peaceful there, like a huge zen garden, and the wonderful staff helped to make it the most restful and beautiful place we've ever been to, south of the M4 anyway!!It's called Blue Pool for a reason, it really is the most wonderful shade of blue/turquoise due to the chemistry of the water. There are walks aplenty round the nature reserve and a wonderful restaurant/tearoom with ample outdoor seating with perfect views over the main pool.A must-visit for anyone in the area, whether on holiday or not, you won't regret it, if you don't rush around, just relax and take your time and let the tranquility just wash over you.

Fantastic few hours here. Brilliant walk with different trails in the woods. Fantastic play area for the kids. Lots of fairy doors to find on the walk. The staff are so lovely and there is plenty of parking. Reasonable price to get in. The Blue pool is breathtaking it's amazing how the colours are constantly changing due to the light. Plenty of benches as we took our own food and drinks. There is a cafe there and a gift shop also has clean toilets. Highly recommend 10/10

We found this hidden gem whilst on holiday in Dorset, we were looking at places to visit, and this popped up on my partners phone. We are so glad it did. It was a a 10 minute ride from where we were staying. There was plenty of parking, the lady at the entrance was very helpful and friendly. Parking is a suggested donation of £2, the cheapest we paid all week.Once inside, we had a lovely walk around. The views are amazing. In the right areas, it is so peaceful. We fed the pigs, who, unlike most pigs at other places, are very well kept, clean, and very friendly. We took a picnic so can't comment on the food. We did have ice creams, though, which are very nice.If you're in the area, it is well worth a day out. It will be the cheapest, and maybe your best day out.

Fantastic place,lovely walks, beautiful scenery. Well worth the admission fee. Went as a family age range 2-65 and something for everyone. Play equipment to keep younger ones happy,fairy trail to keep us all entertained and the views were enjoyed by all.It isn't really buggy friendly so if your toddler can walk let them!!
