Willen Lake & Grand Union Canal


Further to the post I made here Grand Union we went back to the car park at the edge of Campbell Park in Milton Keynes.  There is now a new marina just along the canal, at the other corner of the park a short walk along the canal.  A brand new bridge has been installed, and lots of new flats and houses also built.  there will be a new pub soon.  So could be a nice walk and lunch along the canal.




We did also stop by Willen Lake - you could walk to there from the canal, lots of new things going on there with a new centre for the water sports, and a new cafe alongside the river.  And also a new play area.  Not quite finished when we went.

The Lakeside pub is there and has outside seating overlooking the lake, and looks to be a new hotel being built on the other side of the lake.


There is a distinct lack of seating, so I hope that will be rectified, not so good for wandering a pondering. 


Must get around to doing the other lakes in MK I spotted this blog with most of them I think Willen is the nearest to Ampthill.
