Lovely place for bird watching. Big area with a few different length walks and impressive scenery (especially on a sunny day!) The bird hides are modern and large and wheelchair friendly with plenty of seats. Big car park with plenty of spaces. Clean toilets and a cafe with some nice looking cakes and food chips. Really enjoyed our time walking round here and will definitely be back.

Fabulous nature reserve with 130 different birds so far this year when I visited at Easter. There are little hides where you can stop to get photos or just watch the birds. A lovely walk around with many stunning views of the juxtaposition of nature and industry. Also a nice shop and cafe serving scones, soup and lots of food options. Events were on this week too for children. Definitely worth a visit, especially for anyone who loves nature.

Great place to see over 30 species of birds, staff friendly and welcoming, facilities are good. Price of food and drink a little expensive, £2.30 for a can of pop! If you need somewhere to go for a quiet walk or to clear your head go here you won't be disappointed.

Stopped by whilst walking the England Coast Path. There’s a pedestrian/cycle entrance, although annoyingly the gate is shut 20 mins before the site closes. Café had already closed but they filled up my water bottle regardless. Was able to get a Magnum from the shop downstairs too. There was no information at the building or online, but once I kept walking signage on the path suggested that those arriving on foot or by public transport are granted free entry to the reserve. Wish I had known about that before! A frequent bus stops right outside on its way between Hartlepool and Middlesbrough.
