Got your own paddleboard or kayak? Bring it along and launch straight from our lakeside access points. Our clear, spring-fed water is perfect for a peaceful paddle or a steady workout — just turn up, launch and enjoy.
No kit? No problem. Paddleboards, kayaks and buoyancy aids are available to hire on site, so you can get straight on the water without the hassle. Ideal for beginners, families or anyone wanting to try something new.
Our splash zone is a favourite with kids (and big kids too!) — perfect for jumping in, cooling off and having fun by the water’s edge. Fancy a challenge? Brave the cold water dip and leave feeling refreshed, energised and slightly smug.
Discover what lies beneath the surface. From recreational diving to certified courses and full equipment hire, our on-site scuba diving experiences are suitable for beginners and experienced divers alike. Clear water, expert instruction and unforgettable underwater moments await.
