"I booked a 20 min session because it's been a while since I last skied.
The boat driver and the whole team were professional and very encouraging.
They made me feel at ease while also making sure I was safe and fully equipped with all the gear to have a wonderful ski session.
All in all a very good experience that I will be repeating very soon.
They also have a onsite cafe/restaurant which is very good value and serves tasty food and hot&cold drinks"

Nice lake to learn on, would deffo recommend for beginners! Feel like I want to take it up regularly now - was a lot easier than I expected."

"Fantastic lake in a great location. Jake and the gang were brilliant. I hadn't skied in 18 years and Jake was patient, funny, helpful, and entertaining with my kids all while driving the boat. Couldn't have asked for a better instructor. Thank you, we'll be back."
