A lovely little lake on the outskirts of Milton Keynes. There's a striking sculpture, the Triple Star Head, by Romanian artist Paul Neagu, as well as wooden sculptures by Wendy Hitching.

If you are hungry, there's a pub on the lakeside, as well as a BBQ area by the 'star' car park.

Teardrop Lakes

Highlight • Structure

The motorway right besides is quite noise, which disturbs the experience considerably. Also the part closer to the national bowl is a bit shabby. For the rest quite green pseudo-nature, but relaxing by bike.
