Amazing location

Stunning location with world class views

What do you like?

Purpose built trails, blue, red and black with some natural ones if you know where to look. All of site is well maintained. Breath taking views, bike hire, kayak hire, coffee shop, bike wash, camping and caravaning on site in season.

What could be improved?

None really other than it will just take time to grow and become as advanced as others on mainland U.K.

Would you recommend?

Why were these not built when I lived in Newcastle?

Couldn't see the trails at some point for all the leaves which made it exciting route finding. Watch out for squirrels!

What do you like?

Huge car park. Fast pump track. Contour climbing/descending blue White Water Rapide is the highlight on the red for me. Options to pick out different small loops of the red. Great night riding venue. Haven't ridden the black.....,yet.

What could be improved?

Could do with a longer blue, my boys are now 7 and 5 and speeding round this circuit.

Would you recommend?

Yes
