1 review of Sutton Park Bracebridge Pool in English
Bracebridge Pool is on the ‘Northern’ side of the Park, over the railway tracks where you might see the wild ponies.
.
The pool is a good size surrounded by trees and has spectacular sun sets especially in summer, when you can sit at the eastern end, sipping a long cool drink on the Boat House restaurant’s veranda overlooking the still waters and watch the big red ball at the far western end sink to wherever it goes. In winter, maybe a hot toddy.
.
There is a magical little path running round the north side of the Pool, wending its way through the trees around the stumps and roots and over little boggy streams (a number of tiny wooden bridges along the way save those who forgot their wellies). Eventually, the path opens out to the patches of sandy lake shore, ideal for gazing at the pool’s tranquil waters rippled only by the many water birds doing their thing.
This path then circles the lake up past Little Bracebridge Pool from where you can walk right back round again to the Boat House (where you might have left your car in the convenient car park for this little excursion).
Beautiful jaunt, well worth the effort – kids love it.

Oh, yes! This is lovely and the photo is lovely :)
Thanks both, it is a really nice place (yes, even in winter, brrrrrrhh thick coats, woolly hats and wellies !) :)
And what do you wear outside? I need a woolly hat on in bed! :)
Ha, yes, Rutchen, know what you mean in this weather, you need a woolly hat on top of your woolly hat to go out! (I leave my wellies and thick coat on in bed, so a real challenge when I have to go out!) :)
Ha ha ha! But get out you do! You are a credit to us all! :)
Thanks Rutchen! I’ll record your endorsement and it’s going straight onto my CV! Yep, up and straight out wwhhhooosshh – of course that’s why I leave the wellies and coat on! :)
I’ll say. You get a ‘tick VG’ from me ;)
Fantastic, thanks Rutchen! I’ve been told I need a VG ticking off!! ;-)
