👍👍 Have been here for open water swimming a number of times. It's amazingly well run and the team there are absolutely brilliant - super friendly and supportive. A fantastic spot for a swim and even better for a post-swim catch up with friends.

Midlands Open Water

Commonwood Leisure - Glamping & Caravan Park

Holiday park
