Stithians Lake in Cornwall is considered one of the windiest inland waters in England. It's not surprising therefore that it's a favourite with windsurfers and sailors alike. Watch the video by clicking on the play button in the images...
At the lake you can enjoy a range of water-based activities including sailing, windsurfing, kayaking and multi-activity days. Try our new climbing wall or archery sessions. There is a campsite adjacent to the water’s edge and a cafe onsite for light lunches and refreshment.
