About this place
A lovely spot for families to try water sports on a peaceful lake. Whether you're keen kayakers or trying paddleboarding for the first time, you can bring your own equipment for a small launch fee or hire directly from the adventure golf kiosk on site. The water is generally warm enough for summer visits, and staff are welcoming and helpful, making it a great introduction to water activities for children and adults alike.
