    Visited for a birthday party. Great room, reasonable price for drinks and a good size room. Just be careful in the car park as not much lighting when leaving in the dark !

    A really good club with good sailing. The location makes it a little gusty but in the middle of the lake you get reasonably constant wind. Friendly members and decent disabled access
