Yet again this fantastic place did not disappoint. Despite a storm then flooding Dave managed to organise a coastering session for 3 teenage boys. The session was tailored to their needs and abilities perfectly. This is a hidden gem of an activity place with Dave who runs it being extremely helpful. Boys looking forward to more days next year when hopefully covid will be eradicated and they want to stay the year after to get more days in! Thank you for everything Dave.

I was a youngster when this place was under construction holidaying in the family caravan nearby. The day's would be interrupted with the dull booms of the heart of the mountain being slowly ripped out to make the caverns for the turbines. It took me over 40 years to go and visit and what a fool I've been. This place is fantastic especially if you have an interest in engineering or a film buff. In the main turbine hall, look to the roof and you see the drainage channel designed by the one and only Carol Voorderman of Countdown fame Step outside into many of the service roads and think about those action movies you have watched like James Bond, Tomb Raider, Harry Potter to mention a few, all fimed here. Five star attraction not to be missed.
