Park in Wokingham

“Dinton Pastures Country Park is my favorite of the bunch—peaceful, playful, and full of charm. There’s still water and ducks to enjoy, plus fun paths to wander, excellent play areas for kids, and even a dog wash machine at the end (love that detail). It’s all just… lovely, really. A perfect mix of nature and little comforts.”

“California Country Park is a true gem. Nestled in 100 acres of rich woodland and heathland, it offers a wonderful blend of natural beauty and well-thought-out family facilities that make it a standout choice. A Beautiful Place for a Walk The park's landscape is its main attraction. The central feature is the stunning Longmoor Lake, around which a gentle, accessible path of just under a mile provides a beautiful and easy walk for all ages and abilities. The route is perfect for pushchairs and offers lovely views across the water, where you can spot swans, ducks, and other birdlife. For those wanting a longer stroll, the 2.2-mile Woodland Walk takes you through ancient woodland and across a boardwalk over Longmoor Bog, a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). This trail feels like a real escape into nature, with rare mosses and plants creating a serene atmosphere. Excellent for Kids & Family Time This is where the park truly shines for families. The adventure play area is fantastic, modern, and engaging. It's split into two main sections: * The Sensory Garden: Aimed at younger children, this area features creative water play sections, a colourful pirate ship, musical chimes, and gentle climbing frames. * The Wild Wood: Designed for older, more adventurous kids, this part includes a fantastic large wooden treehouse, climbing structures, a zip line, and swings. During the warmer months, the paddling pool is an enormous hit (booking is usually required). With ample space for picnics and Jacksons Café on-site offering delicious food and drinks with a view of the lake, you can comfortably spend the entire day here. Relaxed Family Fishing For those looking to introduce their kids to fishing, Longmoor Lake is ideal. It is a well-stocked coarse fishery, offering a relaxed and picturesque environment. You can expect to catch species like roach, perch, tench, and even some good-sized carp and pike. It’s perfect for pleasure fishing from one of the 33 designated swims.”

“On arrival a beautiful entrance, we stayed in our own campervan so I can’t comment on chalets. We arrived at 18.30 and reception was closed , the gate code allowed us access , and our pitch was easy to find , each pitch is beautifully marked with a very clear number so there is no confusion, on what’s yours .Site is well maintained, and although there was work in progress, we feel that this can only improve a lovely site with a fantastic lake , walks children’s play area pet and cycle friendly.”

“Great place for dog walking. If done correctly your dog gets clean in the ponds that contain reasonably clean water.”

“Ny kids have the most enjoyable time at this soft play the manager always welcomes us with the kindest warmest smile. The soft play is so clean.

“I recently had the pleasure of using Ace Cars Wokingham, and I must say it was a remarkable experience. The level of professionalism and expertise displayed by the driver was commendable. The attention to detail and personalized approach really set them. I highly recommend.”

“I would like to say a big thank you to Louise today for a super full groom for my 12 year old cavachon, Lily! She said Lils was a sweet heart, but in fact it was Louise, she took time and loving patience to give a fab groom! Thank you from both of us!”

“Where to start? There are so many positives to say about Dog Trouble. All the staff are amazing, but Jo really is incredible; her knowledge is invaluable. She has a very calm, non judgmental yet confident aura. Our dog has been going to Dog Trouble for over a year now, he’s done workshops and boarded and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the facilities and expertise. We fully support everything Dog Trouble stand for and are so thankful for all the help we’ve received so far.”

“Great little dog walk area, nice view points, not a large route and it's very flat and easy to walk, few ducks and swans in the lake which is lovely,on a sunny day it looked gorgeous. Very well sheltered in the trees too so not too hot despite good weather. Carpark isn't huge but I found there was still plenty of space despite it being prime walking time.”

“Stopped here for a pint a couple of times... Great pub garden, lots of seating and nicely set out. Tables and sunshades are plentiful, and there are big and small tables, private areas and loads of character. Drinks are tasty and reasonably priced. Also plenty of parking and food looked delicious!”

“Shanghai is our go-to Chinese takeaway since we moved locally a few years ago. The food is always of a good standard (can vary depending on day of the week) and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. The menu is very much standard but really enjoy the salt and chilli ribs and their satay sauce, much more authentic than your standard Chinese”

“Beautiful!! Peaceful. Great dog walking area. Bins well used and emptied on a regular basis”

“Fantastic facility for local residents to enjoy. A well thought out and attractive spot.”

“Great place to host events. With a nice kitchen.”

“Always a good day when we come here. Parking is on the expensive side, over £2 for 1 hour. Can't remember if it was £2.20 or £2.50. Kids love it here. My grandad passed away last month and we used to come here with him alot. We even celebrated his 80th birthday here during covid. We came last weekend to remember grandad and share memories with a nice walk around the lake.”

“Felt very welcomed and the staff were incredibly kind and had great customer service, the food was lovely. Would recommend”
