I've just completed a week long sailing course gaining my level 2 RYA. I want to mention Richard the main instructor who was incredible at teaching me the skills to sail with confidence even in a gale force 5 to 6! Other shout out to AP and Ben who were very professional and very helpful. Due to my work commitments they kindly rescheduled the course dates! I can fully recommend the course and the establishment in general! I'll look forward to carrying on my sailing and hope to use the facilities in the near future! Keep up the good work!
Fantastic place with super friendly, relaxed and welcoming staff. Thanks Dan, Janet, Pete and AP for the sailing lessons! This place is an asset to Leeds council and a fantastic service for local ⛵⛅🌊
I’ve had 2 lessons with John and AJ. Fantastic patient trainers. Ideal place for SUP. You can hire their equipment from wetsuits to boards. Great for kids to pensioners. This is a great bonus in Leeds attractions! Can highly recommend!!!!
My son absolutely loved the 5 day Outdoor Activity Camp last year and wants to do it every year from now on. The tutors were fab and the range of activities and level of challenge was perfect.
A much used and loved small sailing boat and canoeing center. They offer lessons for beginners of all ages in the safety of the tarn with experience and friendly staff So go enjoy sailing or learn sailing and have loads of fun
