Alderford Lake is a stunning Shropshire destination set just outside Whitchurch, centred around a shimmering 14 acre lake that’s perfect for adventure and relaxation all year round.
Visitors can make a splash on the giant inflatable Aquapark—with slides, climbing walls, balance beams and plenty of obstacles for those aged six and over—or hire paddleboards, canoes, kayaks or Mega SUPs, as well as enjoy open-water swimming or self-launch their own craft.
Alderford also offers a water-borne twist on escape rooms in its Escape Islands, where groups paddle out to themed islands to solve puzzles and find their way back to shore.
On land, a flat, family-friendly walking trail loops the lake and is complemented by a nature play area hidden amongst the trees, featuring a treehouse, ropes and scramble nets.
Dining comes courtesy of the Lakeside Kitchen—serving breakfast, lunch, freshly made afternoon teas and local specialties—plus a takeaway kiosk and adjoining farm shop for snacks, refreshments and local produce.
The venue hosts a full calendar of seasonal events, including the vibrant family-oriented Alderfest music festival in early July (headliners have included Ella Henderson, Pixie Lott and The Vengaboys) with live music, fairground rides, stunt shows, circus workshops and watersports activities both day and night. Later in the year, the festive season brings Christmas experiences like the immersive Santa Island Experience—complete with boat journeys, elves, a toy workshop and a grotto visit with Santa—plus a real undercover ice rink, ice bar, reindeer meet-and-greets, wreath-making workshops and bonfire night celebrations over the water. www.alderford.com
