Please note; the Stuart Hutchings Hide and the Feeder Hide at Stithians Lake will be closed on Friday 16th August between 17.00 – 20.00hrs to allow strimming and maintenance works to take place.
The road closure affecting these hides has now been extended until 8th November. The hides are currently accessible by car from the Penmarth direction – although this will involve driving past the road closure signs/barriers – and this access will change as the road works progress along this road over the coming weeks.
