Lovely in summer with the boats on it, but not enough to do for the children only feed the geese, which can be very scary

My husband and I had a lovely 2 hours here feeding the ducks and geese. The weather was not suitable for hiring a rowing boat but we plan to go back this summer, to do just that. We had a coffee and home made cake in the little cafe and it was really nice.

Fresh water lake left by the Ice age. Boating, Sailing, Fishing, Bird watching. A Cafe that is a bit like taking a step back in time, selling proper cafe food and mugs of tea, chocolate, etc.

In December when we visited Hornsea Mere it was fairly quiet as the weather was windy and cloudy. You can walk along the Mere's edge and feed the swans and ducks if you have brought them some food.

Lots of the above and boats for a row, popular with younger kids

Huge open area of water. Great fun for family day out

It is totally unspoiled, not changed for years. The cafe is like going back to the 1950's. An ideal place to get away from it all, watching the wildlife on the water and feed the ducks.

Went to mere with my family! We played minature golf, hired a boat and enjoyed viewing the beautiful sites around us! A very relaxing but still fun day out!

We took 2 gambling obsessed 11 year olds to give us and them a break from the usual seaside stuff. Went out on a boat. Saw a water snake. Watched wildlife. Had tea and cake. Very lovely. Minature golf too. Well worth a laid back visit.
