Flooding across Nene Park

• Great news that the water levels across most of the Park are now back to normal but please be aware that the Park remains very wet and muddy, so wellies or stout shoes are strongly recommended when you're visiting.
• Our Park management team will be doing the big clear up of rubbish this week that the floodwaters have spread everywhere.
• Lakeside car park and toilets are now open again but unfortunately the payment machines are currently out of order in that location. Please stop and pay at the coach car park on your way out of the Park. Thank you for your patience.
