Assessor comments
"There's plenty to do at this lovely water park."
Overview
Spread over around 400 acres, in some lovely Suffolk countryside, Alton Water is a perfect place to spent some time. There are plenty of trails and nature walks if you fancy a ramble, or you can do a bit of cycling, or you could take on one of the many watersports on offer, if you're feeling more energetic. There are also fishing opportunities, or you can just lie on the grass and snooze.

About the area
Suffolk is Constable country, where the county’s crumbling, time-ravaged coastline spreads itself under wide skies to convey a wonderful sense of remoteness and solitude. Highly evocative and atmospheric, this is where rivers wind lazily to the sea and notorious 18th-century smugglers hid from the excise men.
