Had fun on the boulder. Also had nice coffee from the barn
this is such a great place for kids with such a big range of activities & it doesn't break the bank! my kids had a brilliant day today
Great day fir the guides. Friendly staff. Activities were snow tubing, climbing, Crate staking, archery assault course and backwoods cooking
Great fun. We came here with the local girl guides group. We took part in the snowtubing which was such a laugh. Definitely a work out though. Would definitely come back again.
Went here on Sunday 15/1/2023 will go back again as had a great time,my daughter and granddaughter and myself enjoyed it here and afterwards, went into there cafe x
I was not even aware that this place existed. Its literally next to Kingsmeadow School in Gateshead. Car park is free but not big. You can also park as soon as you leave the main road. This was our first time visiting the centre. We arrived early so we had a look at the snow tubing session before ours. Kids got very excited and couldn't wait for their turn. After a brief safety talk, each grabbed a tube and off we went up the slope. My 4 years old struggled to carry the tube up the slope. My 6 year old managed but as other adults were overtaking her and jumping queues I had to help. PS6 a person for 30 minutes is great value. Kids loved it so we will coming back soon.
