Loved visiting Bosherston lily ponds recently. I was her in April last and the lily's had barely broken the surface of the water. Spring has sprung and now the lily's are in full bloom and absolutely stunning. It's a great place to have a walk around. Very accessible and everyone visiting seemed so friendly. There are lots of dogs on the trail too and my fur babies loved it. Some areas are a bit inaccessible but it wasn't a problem for me. You can also take the beach trail which takes you into the bay.
We didn't walk right round the area just from the 8 arches Bridge the back onto the coastal path enjoyed what we saw herons on the water damson fly landed on mmy hand. Unfortunately late into June the lily pods had finished flowering. Great path to walk on. We were glad to get some shade as it was hot. The woods were welcoming. Lovely area lots to see.
Parked in a pay and display, £3 for 3 hours, free if you're a National Trust member. Toilets in the car park, free and reasonably clean. There are a number of picnic benches around, perfect for a picnic etc. Beautiful scenic walk, breathtaking and zen like. Definitely not suitable for prams or wheelchairs. Wear trainers or a decent shoe as the path is uneven, full of roots, rocks, etc. Really not a problem but just be careful. Very natural, not manicured and all the better for it.
This place is outstandingly pretty, we decided to walk from the parking area here along the lakes over the cliffs to Stackpole Quay. The round trip took about 2.5 hours as some parts are quite steep. We also stopped for a rest at Barafundle Bay which is spectacular. There are 66 steps up from the beach to the clifftop. By then you are almost at the Quay where you can get refreshments. If you love walking, want to try and spot seals, otters and lots of birds, this delivers on all fronts. Restrooms: Toilets in parking area at Bosherston and Stackpole Quay but nowhere else on this walk. Dog-friendliness: Dogs best on leads, due to extremely high cliffs, blue-green algae in lily ponds and so as not to disturb wildlife. Not allowed in cafe but plenty of outside seating. Allowed on Broad Haven and Barafundle Bay beaches. Picnic area: Everywhere and anywhere - just take your rubbish home with you.
Lily ponds. What can I say. Blown away by the actual size of it. We walked for 7hrs and still didn't get to see it all. We walked across the 8 arched bridge and walked down to the beach. Very quiet for a bank holiday, unfortunately we must have missed the Lillie's in bloom or maybe they are about to flourish? Saw a massive heron with 3 swans and a load of ducks. Can't wait to go back to see what we missed, choose the weather wisely, it can be a little uneven in places. Picnic area: Great beach at the bottom of the lake's to chill in the sand,
Great place to see wildlife that you don't normally see. We were very lucky to watch an adult otter mother playing with her two pups. They drew quite a crowd and kept us entertained for a good 20/30mins.
Stunning place. Thoroughly enjoyed the walk around. Can also be made longer be adding Broadhaven Beach in. Will come back around June when the lilies are put properly and more wildlifeVisited onWeekendWait timeNo wait
Fantastic day out its a bit of a walk but when you get to the end and arrive at Bosherton Beach it's well worth it. The Beach was stunning with caves and rock pools for exploring. There are a couple of narrow bridges you need to walk over to cross the lilly ponds but it gives you chance to stop and take in the lovely views.
Bosherston Lakes are impressive. Lots of wildlife if your quiet and patient. Especially if you are hoping to catch sight of the Otters. We were staying in the area for a few days. So walked the entire lake complex. It's a place to be in touch with nature. The lake is plagued by the Blue Algue bloom at the moment. National Trust really needs to address this issue.
I'm sure it's lovely in June/July when the lillies are out but the rest of the year its just a lake. Note that it is a 30-45min from the car park to Broadhaven beach along a lakeside path through woodland that is not really suitable for those with restricted mobility. The beach is spectacular though when you get there and lives up to its name.
