Carsington Water的点评
点评：Now I’m not some world traveller or anything like that but I’m a huge hiker/walker and I seek out many of the beautiful places the UK has to offer, I have a top 5 list of stunning places that changes as the years go on and I visit more beautiful places I’ve not yet discovered. Carsington Water is now one of those and probably taken a place in my top 5 through a very magical thing that happened which I’ll get to shortly.
I’ve done a lot of the Peak District stemming back from when I was a kid going with my parents and family. I’m now 51 so I’ve seen a fair few places over those years.
I’m always searching for new ones and alas, I came across this stunning place through a search, only an hour away from my house. I can’t believe I’d never heard of it before.
I’d read reviews of course and knew there was a short and longer walk around the reservoir, I took the longer one which turned out to be amazing.
I parked at the Sheepwash carpark as I’d read it was £4 for all day. I think the main carpark is £7.50. Now I’ve been though I’d pay the £7.50 no problem as I know it goes back into the upkeep.
The visitors centre wasn’t open as I was super early but I looked around it and it looks really nice, so big too. Reminded of some big posh hotel. Everywhere was spotlessly clean, pathways were very even and because of the dryer weather there wasn’t much muddy paths at all.
The reservoir is HUGE and from certain angles looks almost like the ocean. The main part where it opens up just past the visitors centre was stunning and I felt a little like I was walking along a costal front, it was a really unusual sunny and warm day to ( Sunday 9th March) so really gave it that holiday feel. Lovely to see the sail boats all in dock and I did get to see some of them out later in the day. The whole walk around was awesome and there’s different little things to see at every turn if you take the time to look.
I did read some reviews that said it was boring, I can’t possibly know what kind of life they lead but if they found this place boring then there’s possibly something wrong with them. I’m always surprised at the amount of people with their heads still stuck in a phone screen when in places with all this beauty around them. The only time my phone is pulled out is to take some pictures.
I could never imagine walking around a place like this and not seeing any of it because I’m catching up on Facebook. It’s crazy to me, we miss so much beauty out there because we’re more interested in other peoples business. Anyway, enough if that.
Now to the magical part. As I headed further around taking the longer routes as I mentioned, I head up into the wooded area. There wasn’t another soul there as everyone seemed to prefer the main routes which I was glad of as it made it a very peaceful walk. Now in those woods I throughly I saw something moving so I stopped to look and there they were, four deers grazing in the thick of the woodland, now I’ve only ever seen a deer in the wild once in my life and then it was dark and by torchlight. I absolutely adore these majestic creatures snd always wanted to see one out in the open ( I’ve seen them in parks etc of course) and there was four of them. I was absolutely like a little kid at Christmas and got a bit emotional lol. now they soon ran once they saw me but I saw them and my heart was racing. It was such an honour to me and absolutely topped off what was already an amazing day.
So the fact that it’s an absolutely stunning place to walk and see, then of course seeing the deer that is so rare for me, this place is now up there in my top 5.
I absolutely loved my time there, some places just make you feel at peace with the world and give you hope and Inspiration and this did exactly that for me. I Will absolutely be back on many occasions I feel now.
Of course what one experiences and other may not and we all love and are inspired by different things and places but for me, this is absolutely up there with some of the most beautiful places I’ve been to that do my mind and soul the world of good. 100% recommend and I will be back without a doubt.
Thank you to whoever keeps this place up and running, you have done an incredible job so that people like me get to do and see these stunning places the world has to offer.

翻译：现在，我不再是世界旅行者或类似的人，但我是一个狂热的徒步旅行者/步行者，我探索了英国的许多美丽地方，我有一份 5 大绝美地方名单，这份名单会随着时间的推移而变化，我会去更多我尚未发现的美丽地方。卡辛顿水库现在就是其中之一，它进入了我的 5 大名单，可能是因为发生了一件非常神奇的事情，我很快就会讲到。
我去过峰区很多地方，这可以追溯到我小时候和父母家人一起去的时候。我现在 51 岁了，所以这些年来我去过不少地方。
我一直在寻找新的地方，唉，我在搜索中偶然发现了这个绝美的地方，离我家只有一个小时的路程。我不敢相信我以前从未听说过它。
我当然读过评论，知道水库周围有一条短途和一条较长的步行道，我选择了较长的那条，结果非常棒。
我把车停在 Sheepwash 停车场，因为我读到那里的全天停车费是 4 英镑。我认为主停车场是 7.50 英镑。现在我已经考虑好了，我愿意支付 7.50 英镑，因为我知道这笔钱会用于维护。
由于我来得太早，游客中心还没有开放，但我环顾四周，它看起来真的很漂亮，也很大。让我想起了一些豪华大酒店。到处都一尘不染，道路非常平坦，而且由于天气干燥，所以几乎没有泥泞的小路。
水库很大，从某些角度看几乎就像海洋。它在游客中心旁边的主要部分非常漂亮，我感觉有点像在海岸边散步，那天真的是一个非常不寻常的阳光明媚、温暖的日子（3 月 9 日星期日），所以真的给人一种度假的感觉。很高兴看到所有的帆船都停在码头上，我确实在当天晚些时候看到了其中一些。整个漫步过程非常棒，如果你花时间去观察，你会发现每个转弯处都有不同的小东西可看。
我确实读过一些评论说这很无聊，我不可能知道他们过着什么样的生活，但如果他们觉得这个地方很无聊，那么他们可能有问题。我总是惊讶于这么多人仍然把头埋在手机屏幕上，而周围却有这么多美景。我唯一会拿出手机拍照的时候就是为了拍照。
我永远无法想象在这样的地方走来走去却什么都看不到，因为我在刷 Facebook。这对我来说太疯狂了，我们错过了那么多美景，因为我们更关心别人的事情。不管怎样，就这些了。
现在到了神奇的部分。当我沿着我提到的较长的路线继续前行时，我走进了树林。那里没有其他人，因为每个人似乎都更喜欢主路线，我很高兴，因为这让我的散步非常平静。现在在那些树林里，我清楚地看到有东西在动，所以我停下来看看，它们就在那里，四只鹿在茂密的树林里吃草，现在我一生中只见过一次野鹿，当时天色已暗，只能用火炬照着。我非常喜欢这些雄伟的生物，一直想在户外看到它们（当然，我在公园等地方见过它们），而且有四只。我就像圣诞节的小孩一样，有点情绪化哈哈。现在它们一看到我就跑了，但我看到它们，我的心跳加速。这对我来说是一种荣幸，绝对为本来就很美妙的一天画上了圆满的句号。
事实上，这是一个绝对令人惊叹的散步和观光的地方，当然，看到对我来说非常罕见的鹿，这个地方现在在我的前五名之列。
我非常喜欢在那里度过的时光，有些地方会让你感到与世界和平，给你希望和灵感，而这个地方正是为我做到了这一点。我现在觉得我肯定会多次回来。
当然，一个人的经历可能和另一个人的经历不一样，我们都喜欢不同的事物和地方，并受到它们的启发，但对我来说，这里绝对是我去过的一些最美丽的地方之一，让我的思想和灵魂得到了极大的愉悦。100% 推荐，我一定会再来的。
感谢那些让这个地方正常运转的人，你们做了一件了不起的工作，让我这样的人有机会去参观世界上这些令人惊叹的地方。
