Facilities
The reserve is entered through converted farm buildings which form the visitor centre, including a shop and the restaurant, with a balcony overlooking the reserve. There is also a classroom for educational visits and meeting rooms which can be used by local businesses, community groups and others. There is a children's adventure playground next to the farmhouse.
Picnic areas are situated on various trails throughout the reserve. There are also several bird hides with good views of the main habitats. They are all based on land cutting through the middle of the main lakes. This means that the furthest hide is only half a mile from the visitor centre.
Car and coach parking is available.

Famous quotes containing the word facilities:
“I have always found that when men have exhausted their own resources, they fall back on “the intentions of the Creator.” But their platitudes have ceased to have any influence with those women who believe they have the same facilities for communication with the Divine mind as men have.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
