Cheshire Lakes is a brand new outdoor adventure facility, currently going through the planning and development stages.

Cheshire Lakes is a brand new outdoor adventure facility, currently going through the planning and development stages. The purpose of this website is to let you all know what we are planning and to get your feedback.

Our facilities will include:
- Cable Wakeboard Park
- Ropes Course
- Open Water Swimming
- Stand Up Paddle Boarding
- Canoe & Kayaking
- Café & Watersports Shop
- Quality showers and changing facilities

We will be open all year round, with our peak times during the summer months. The facility will be open to the general public, will be able to cater for school and college groups and will be a fully inclusive facility.

Cheshire Lakes is being setup on a former quarry site, just outside Chelford. The site has for the last 15 years been used to extract sand and is now in its transitional period bringing the lakes and landscaping into a form where it can be used for a new venture.

Our plans are to develop a small part of the former quarry into our environmentally friendly adventure center. The remaining areas of the former quarry will be allowed to flourish into an area of wildlife, woodland and lakes. The current footpath, which runs through the middle of the site, will be retained and we feel our plans will enhance the public access and right of way.

Cheshire Lakes is a Community Interest Company with the key aims to bring opportunities to Cheshire East. We plan to offer a high quality community sporting resource available for all to enjoy, bringing health and physical activity benefits for youngsters as young as 6 through to those over 60. We will bring employment and training to the area for young people on a full time and part time basis. Upwards of 30 jobs will be created.

The team behind Cheshire Lakes has successfully setup and currently runs two similar facilities, Foxlake Adventures in Dunbar, Scotland and Liverpool Wake Park. Our lead director lives in Cheshire East and runs Industry Wake Parks, the company, which provides the watersports equipment and staff training to similar sites all over the UK and Ireland. We have vast experience in the watersports industry and successfully run other sites, which are commercially sustainable, environmentally friendly and have incredible social outcomes.

It would be impossible to give a guaranteed opening time, but we hope to be open in Spring 2017.
