Spent an hour here paddleboarding and really enjoyed the experience. The team working there were all friendly and helpful, with a good explanation of the lake and how to make the most of it. Great amount of parking, lots of seating for the cafe and good value for money.

I was there for the UK Bungee Club which itself was an amazing experience. But the whole place was great. A coffee shop by a lake, with ducks and swans. If I lived closer I'd be there a lot.
