Situated beside Thorpe lake, with a number of designated walks for those who wish to observe the wildlife or simply enjoy walking in such stunning settings.
There is an indoor play area for toddlers, an outdoor play area for older children and, in the summer, there are water play activities. These play areas as also ideal for children’s parties.
Our shop has bespoke, local products of great skill, attractively priced and centrally themed on sustainability.

Ideal for souvenirs, gifts or simply to support local crafts people and artists.
Our café is an ideal place to relax and recharge your batteries after a lakeside walk. Centred on locally sourced produce, we offer drinks, snacks and full meals throughout the day with glorious views of the lake.
Our lower gallery has proved to be ideal for weddings, conferences and parties. A generously sized area that opens out onto the pontoon affording stunning views of the lake. See venue hire.
