Welcome to Colemere

Colemere is a small lake located in the county of Shropshire, England. It is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, who come to enjoy the tranquil surroundings and beautiful scenery. The lake is surrounded by woodland and fields, making it a perfect spot for a peaceful walk or picnic. The water is crystal clear and home to a variety of fish and wildlife, including ducks, swans, and herons.

The lake is also steeped in history, with evidence of human activity dating back to the Bronze Age. In the 19th century, the lake was used for boating and fishing, and a small boathouse was built on the shore. Today, visitors can still hire rowing boats and explore the lake at their leisure. There are also several walking trails around the lake, including a circular route that takes in the nearby village of Colemere.

Colemere is a true hidden gem in the heart of Shropshire. It offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, and a chance to connect with nature. Whether you're looking for a romantic stroll, a family day out, or a spot of fishing, Colemere has something for everyone. So why not pack a picnic, grab your walking boots, and head down to this beautiful lake for a day of relaxation and adventure?
