Features

Archery: Release your inner Robin Hood and try one of England’s favourite and oldest past times by learning how to use a bow and arrows!
Bellboating: I’ve heard about canoes and kayaks, but bellboating… what’s a bellboat? A bellboat is a twin-hulled canoe joined by a platform. The paddlers sit in line in each hull facing forward. Up to 10 participants can enjoy this fantastic fun experience in one boat!
Bushcraft: Bushcraft is a popular activity that gives you the chance to get back to nature and test your survival skills! It uses ancient methods that enable us to thrive and survive in the natural environment.
Canoeing and Kayaking: We use Open Canoes that seat 1- 3 people. The canoes make an ideal group session for anyone who wants to try something new and different. Kayaking is versatile, fast and exciting using double-bladed paddles and sitting right on the water.
Climbing and Abseiling: We have 3 climbing walls… The Crag, The Pyramid and The Tower. Each wall has various grades ranging from basic traverses to more difficult climbs for those wanting more of a challenge. Our climbing walls are great for learning how to abseil and perfecting abseil techniques.
Disc Golf: Disc (or Frisbee) golf is a similar game to "regular" golf except that it's played with a Disc. Players throw the disc as close as possible to a specially designed target called a basket, then throw again from where the disc landed, trying to get into the basket in the lowest number of throws.
Orienteering: We are situated in over 70 acres of semi-rural land making us the ideal location for orienteering. It’s a great activity that exercises both your mind and body. Practise your map and compass skills with our permanent orienteering course with routes that vary in length from 1.7km to 3.2km.
Snowboarding: We have floodlit synthetic bristle matting slopes available for use throughout the year. The main slope is approximately 100 metres long and incorporates a drag button ski lift. We also have a 30 metre nursery slopes which is exclusively used as a nursery slope for teaching beginner lessons.
Team Building: We offer a range of options within our teambuilding activity for your group. We are situated in over 70 acres of semi rural land and can host a wide range of programmes that can be tailor-made to suit your groups training needs.
Tobogganing: Youngsters will love whizzing down our exclusive toboggan/ Sledging slope over and over again! Tobogganing is fast, exciting, exhilarating and fun activity for children aged between 3 and 12. Our exclusive purpose built 25 metre toboggan slope operates all year round, whatever the weather!
Tower Drop: Experience the ultimate adrenaline rush with our Tower Drop! At the top of our 20 metre tower we have a Tower Drop that simulates a free fall drop! Participants are fitted with a harness and helmet and then will make their way to the top of our 20 metre tower via the central staircase.
Tubing: Weve seen you stealing your childs Tobbogan to have a sneaky go!! Well now you can. We are closing the main slope for Tubing sessions. These half hour sessions will run from at least half way up the slope and maybe further depending on the weather.
Zip Wire: Experience the ultimate adrenaline rush with our Zip Wires! We have 2 individual Zip Wires that run off our 20 metre tower.
