That they are especially when the sun is out and you're fortunate enough to live a stone's throw away from a place as special as Byron's Pool.
The great man himself was said to have bathed here, sadly though the pool is now covered in green sludge so no bathing there now. However it is the perfect spot for a picnic, an explore alongside the River Cam or to relax with a good book.
As Lord Byron himself wrote
“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes, By the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but Nature more, From these our interviews, in which I steal From all I may be, or have been before, To mingle with the Universe, and feel What I can ne'er express, yet cannot all conceal.”
