Overview
Talkin Tarn is a very attractive local lake surrounded by woods. The track was absolutely fine for my scooter so we enjoyed the views, the woods, the waterfowl and the fresh air. There is a café and giftshop and a brilliant kids' play area. The weather was very cold so we didn’t explore as much as we might, but if you are in the area and want some fresh air, this is a lovely place to visit. There is ample parking which is free for Blue Badge holders for up to 3 hours if you display the time that you arrived. From the car park to the lake is quite a slope but you can park behind the café shop where there are some marked bays and access from there is much less steep. There are toilets, including an accessible one requiring a RADAR-key.
Transport & Parking
Large tarmac carpark. Free parking for Blue Badge holders for 3 hours, if you display the time you arrived. Follow driveway at far side of carpark for more marked bays behind café. Route from here is less steep. If you parked in main carpark then came this way, you would encounter rather steep speed humps - risk of grounding!
Access
Pathway pretty smooth - see photos.
Toilets
There is an accessible loo requiring a RADAR key but didn't use it so can't comment.
