Locko Park is a picturesque place with beautiful scenery and a peaceful atmosphere. It's perfect for a walk and enjoying nature. However, parking can be challenging as there are limited spaces available on the road.
Nice park with some lovely views of the lake and surrounding area. The surfaced path makes it an easy walking surface for people of all abilities to enjoy. The house and much of the grounds are private, so no parking at the park apart from the road outside the entrance. Nice location just to visit or as part of a longer walk, plenty of paths to extend and make a circular walk.
Went to see the viking festival. Just a wonderful day out. There was a beer tent run by stagger inn who had lots of choice. The battles were spectacular and it was a well run event. Lots for children to see and get involved in. Perfect day out. X
Absolutely huge, I went today for a Viking festival and didn’t see the whole park definitely would come back on a normal day to explore! Did get to see the lake and plenty of ducks in there to feed! Lots of parking and very accessible
Sort of open to the public, but not fully open. It's essentially private land, people actually live in the house; therefore, you obviously can't go in it; however, the land surrounding it is open to the public... providing you stick to the path/road. It has a Chatsworth House feel to the grounds and is remarkably peaceful and quiet...but that's about it, there's no toilets, no café, no parking so if you're after that kind of stuff your better off going elsewhere. The history of the grounds is absolutely fascinating with records dating back to the Doomsday book of 1086, well worth looking into.
Really enjoyed Larping with Lorien Trust here. The entertainment was fab The venue was lovely There were plenty of porta loos that were reasonably kept There were a several places to buy food & drink or tipples The bell tents most use add to the ambiance & feel of the entertainment. The event itself was very structured and the communication about this easy to follow, especially on thier social media (I follow on Facebook) The cost of tickets I think we're readable for the whole weekend. Would definitely go back for one of their events. The park itself is large and very picturesque. I think they do many events here.
Having this place on your doorstep is absolutely fantastic! With plenty of routes available, my favourite is: right at the end of the lake, down the lane (with the cottage at the end), carry on passed that, then through the trees and take a left. This will lead into another walkway.
