Fifty acres of fun!
The park offers a wide
range of activities and amenities suitable for all ages and
abilities, including lessons. New to watersports, or wanting to try
something new? Allerthorpe Lakeland Park's fully qualified
instructors offers lessons in swimming, sailing, windsurfing,
powerboating, and even archery or First Aid. Allerthorpe's is a
recognized training centre for the Royal Yachting Association (RYA).
At the Allerthorpe
Lakeland Park Watersports Activity Centre, "boating" could
mean anything from a simple pedal boat through a kayak, canoe, or
rowboat to a sailboat or a powerboat. No need to bring your own
helmets or splash jackets – these are provided.
Or go fishing in the
Park's serene coarse fishing lake, surrounded by mature woodland.
Fish for carp, roach, rudd, chub, crucians, and tench in the
three-acre lake (barbless hooks only – all fish must be returned to
the lake).
If you prefer not to
get wet, or don't want to spend your entire day in the water, other
Allerthorpe Lakeland Park amenities include archery, mature woodland,
scenic surroundings, a cafe, a pets corner, and a state-of-the-art
children's playground.
The Lakeside Cafe
serves a full English breakfast and a variety of hot and cold meals,
all freshly made with local ingredients. September to May, Sunday's
lunch is the best of British beef, Yorkshire puddings, and fresh
seasonal vegetables, followed by homemade pudding. Or simply enjoy a
specialty tea or coffee with a scone whilst relaxing on the deck
overlooking the lake.
The play area is situated at the entrance to the park and the management
wanted a playground with 'Wow factor' so asked local company Image Playgrounds to design, build and install their bespoke outdoor playground equipment.
The children's
playground boasts an innovative lakeside-themed play area, including
a Beach House tower system, an exciting Scatterlog Climbing system (above),
traditional swings and additional Adventure Trail equipment. The
challenge of an Adventure Trail playground for children is to
progress from one piece of equipment to the next without touching the
ground, promoting balance and agility.
Enjoy a fun family day,
or bring your caravan or pitch a tent at the campsite and stay longer
to enjoy the scenery and to make the most of all the available
activities. Facilities include electric hook-up, showers, toilets and
a washing up area.
The park facilities area popular venue for school outings, company and school team building
activities, business meetings, trainings, birthday and other parties,
and a growing number of sporting and other events.
