Hi Guys,
I will be over at Donna Nook this saturday and at Bradgate this sunday and i am looking for interesting places to visit on sunday wich lay between Bradgate (near Leicester) and Hull for sunday afternoon.
My good friend Paul Ashton allready advised Rutland but if any of you have some other interesting places to visit i'd be more then happy to hear them.
Greetings,
Jeroen Stel

Hi Jeroren
I am planning Donna Nook on Saturday, however, re tips, when you are travelling towards Hull on Sunday, you will probably travel down the M1 and then on the M18. Take Junction 3 on the M18 and head towards Doncaster. Travel approx 1/2 mile off the motorway towards Doncaster, and you will encounter a roundabout. On this roundabout there is a sign "Potteric Carr" which is a Yorkshire Wild Life Trust reserve. Piper Marsh is good for Bittern and has a good cafe in the middle of the reseve.
Another option, closer to Hull is RSPB Blacktoft Sands, off the M62, near Goole.
Both sites are worth a visit.
