The zip wires were definitely the best I've seen and provided a hair raising thrill. We also did the High ropes, Zorbing and Archery, which were all great fun too. We're... More

Great activities both water and land based - there's something for everyone! Really enjoyed the high ropes and zip line across the river. Absolutely fabulous scenery and very friendly, helpful and encouraging staff. Without a doubt it was an experience not to be missed. We will be back!

The staff were very organised and there was very little wait time for a large group. We were briefed and kitted up for the activities in good time. Participated in archery, ziplining, dune buggy driving and... More

Zip wiring is a... More
