Cotswold Water Park Many of the lakes are privately owned by gravel companies, clubs and individuals but a large number of lakes are open for public access and activities. The Cotswold Water Park Trust was set up as a registered charity to improve public access and to make the Cotswold Water Park a better environment for wildlife and people. With a team of staff and volunteers the Trust manages the Gateway Centre, five Nature Reserves, six car parks and many miles of footpaths. We also work with mineral companies, leisure providers, local businesses, councils and communities to create a sustainable future for the Cotswold Water Park.
