About

Its circular shape and still waters mirror the surrounding trees and sky, creating a serene focal point that complements the nearby folly of Blaise Castle. The pool is bordered by stonework and shaded by mature foliage, attracting wildlife and offering a quiet spot for contemplation. Visitors often encounter it while exploring the estate’s network of trails, making it a subtle yet memorable highlight of the journey.
