WORK UP AN APPETITE

If you’re looking to work up an appetite look no further than Kielder Water Caravan Park, overlooking Kielder Water - the largest man-made lake in Northern Europe, a fabulous location for an active holiday with every kind of outdoor sport imaginable. Enjoy swimming, cycling, walking trails around the Lakeside Way, archery, fencing, table tennis, snorkelling, FUNdamentals (gymnastics for young children), sea scooters (underwater propellers to power around the pool), water walkerz (walk on water in the pool inside an inflatable ball) and disc golf.


Those with a penchant for cycling or walking can also enjoy The Cambrian Way, with many beautiful hill and river walks within easy reach of the Rhandirmwyn Camping and Caravanning Club campsite. The circular all-ability access trail in Cwmrhaeadr Forest, one-and-a-half miles from the campsite is perfect for cyclists. Find more cycling ideas here or plan your trip to our very own Tour De Yorkshire.

GREAT PLACES TO FORAGE

Fancy a spot of foraging? For amateurs Dorset provides the perfect location to give wild foraging a try with a selection of courses on offer. The Dorset Wildlife Trust actively encourages sustainable foraging promising shellfish to edible seaweeds on the coastline, to plants such as fat hen and chickweed as well as fully stocked hedgerows. John Wright, known from Channel 4’s River Cottage, is a leading authority on foraging and leads food forages throughout the year.


Further afield, the Isle of Skye provides the perfect spot for those who want to try this fashionable and historic trend. Find wild garlic, meadowsweet and gorse flower in the countryside then head to the shoreline for cockles, clams, mussels and seaweed.
