An Extraordinary Winter
The cogs are turning (slowly!) and it looks like a return to something like normality might be on its way - that’s how we’re determined to see it anyway! At the moment we can offer cano-rafting (2 person inflatables), air boating (one person inflatables), and hydrospeeding. These activities are suitable for people of 12 years and over, and do require a level of competence in the water as it’s likely you’re going to get wet!

Covid 19 - Summer Cancelled?
While the world is still turning, summer will still come. I’m pretty sure the sun will still shine, and there’ll still be heat in it.
