Country park

Surrounding the Anglo Saxon Village and with 125 acres of unspoiled countryside, trails, heath and woodland walks, there is plenty to explore at West Stow Country Park.

For wildlife enthusiasts there are two bird hides and a bird feeding area as well as a lake and the River Lark with all the life that this attracts.

Please note that between 16 and 30 September due to river flow improvement works by the BFER Project, the river path will be partially closed. Please check the information signs in the country park.

To help plan your visit to West Stow Country Park, pick up a leaflet from the café, visitor centre or information boards on arrival, or:

Perfect for picnics on sunny days, energetic winter walks or an evening stroll. The park also boasts a fantastic adventure playground for kids, an ideal family destination.

Please note:

• dogs are welcome in the country park, provided they are kept on a lead
• between 1 March and 31 July, all dogs must be kept on a lead throughout the country park to protect ground nesting birds
• cycling is not permitted across the heath, around the lake or along the river.

There is also food and drink available as takeaway from the café next to the main car park, along with toilet facilities.
