There is a fantastic path following the edge of this reservoir which can be great for a bike ride or a very long walk! Bikes can be hired out in the summer, and there is plenty of wildlife to keep a look out for.

Food Scene
The Black Buoy is a local pub, fantastic for drink and food. Dog friendly, this place tends to be heaving with people, so I would advise to prebook to ensure a meal! Lovely outside patio area which is gorgeous in the summer!

The school itself was once based in Greenwich before moving to Holbrook, hence why the buildings are effectively a replica of those that can be seen up in London. The grounds are never ending, and there is a small museum on the grounds based on its history. It's maritime heritage means that there are traditional parades preformed by the students which are fantastic.
