This pretty pool is actually a ford in the River Whitewater where you can paddle, splash and splosh. It is quiet, peaceful and muddy.
Odiham Castle The Basingstoke Canal 
From here you can easily walk along the Basingstoke Canal to Odiham Castle (this took us ten to fifteen minutes).
To find the ford you have to cross a small bridge over the Basingstoke Canal, either on foot or by car.
We crossed the bridge by car and parked next to the ford but there is really only space for one or two cars. There are also several parking spaces in a lay-by just before the bridge.
