If you're looking for a special treat to eat at the hut or prepare your own food, a trip to Jolly Nice may be worthwhile! It's an incredibly decadent farm shop with amazing local produce.
It is a 15 minute drive from us so not easy to pop to but if you're exploring the Stroud valley and nearby, definitely worth popping in.

Swimming
Our 'in-land' beach!
Lots of great facilities, a sandy beach and a swimming lake. This isn't the only one in the waterpark but is the best suited for non members. Alternatively a drive out to the lakes you'll likely stumble across somewhere you wish to stop!
