Outdoor pool in Stoke

“Went here for the North Pole express. We had a great time. The staff were all really friendly. A great experience for us and the kids. A small bag of treats on the train including port and mince pies for us and juice and cookies for the kids made the journey even better. The kids loved their gifts from Santa too; a well thought out gift for our kids ages. The elves on board made it fun, having a sing along and even a bit of magic which was great. All in all a really great experience and highly recommend it. We also had a drink in the bar after, mulled wine and a great selection of beers finished off with some tasty hot meat baps and pigs in blankets.”

“Me and my daughters visited this wildlife park and it was a wonderful visit. The animals all look well cared for with plenty of space to move. The accessibility for wheelchair users was fantastic. Platforms made it easy to view animals and the walk around areas were not too small. Information about each animal was clear and easy to understand for younger children. There was an option to feed wallabies or deer, we opted for wallabies and were amazed when a joey popped its head out of its mom's pouch. Although my daughters are adults, the play area was fantastic, we would have definitely spent a fair while there when they were younger. Definitely a place to visit. If there were any recommendations for the park, it would be to have some Makaton signs by the enclosures.”

“I had a wonderful day at Tittesworth visitor centre while my husband took part in an ultra marathon. The center was well-organized with very friendly staff. The food was good and the drinks were reasonably priced. There was ample parking and great accessibility for wheelchair users. The disabled toilet was a bit challenging to access due to the door, but it was clean. There were plenty of disabled parking spots close to the main paths. The paths around the lake were great for those with strollers and wheelchairs. They also offer trampers for hire if you want to relax and enjoy the stunning views.”

“I highly recommend this Restaurant! We tried Pizza, Buger and a Dessert. Everything was very delicious. The Pizza dough was a Highlight. The staff ist very nice and courteous.”

“Great quiz / bingo on a Wednesday night, had a brilliant night. Good prices. All staff were lovely!”

“A great day out paddle boarding canoeing walking along woodland trails parts are wheelchair friendly take out meals and drinks available toilets open though reduced at the moment for safety plenty of hand gel stations a picturesque reservoir to walk around.”

“Fun morning katakanu and canoe session with teens. Naomi and Joe were very helpful and wanted us to get the most out of our session, so they tailored it to us. Beautiful setting to sit and have an ice-cream after with picnic benches outside. We had a voucher from friends, and this experience would be an excellent experience present for a family.”

“Cracking pub mint atmosphere feel at home staff are so efficient never waiting for a pint acoustic nights on the last Thursday of the month are banging”

“Great nice club. Bar staff are great/prices cheap, we visited the venue for a wake loosing a dear friend and stopping at the palace hotel, thanks for a lovely evening...”

“A great walk all year round. The Visitor Centre provides a selection of hot and cold drinks as well as snacks. The balcony offers a stunning view across the lake.”

“We stopped here for a short walk, picnic and a read in really peaceful surroundings. There were a few people walking around with their dogs that were having a fab time (and swim) in the lake. Occasional trains passing by but otherwise very quiet and a lovely hour spent here.”

“Had the most lovely relaxing day at the spa. All the staff were attentive, treatment was great, lunch was delicious and spa itself was lovely and great facilities. Sat in the outside hot tub with the Christmas decor and a hot chocolate was perfection! Will recommend.”

“Wonderful, very clean area, well maintained paths, beautiful variety of plants, some of the walks could be sign posted better, there are some more accessible walks if you have mobility issues. Pleanty of different car parks, but bare in mind the car park you choose may vary the immediate accessibility of the walks so I'd advise you pick your carpark based on rhe walk you choose. Dog friendly just clean up after your pets. There are bins at key points throughout the park as well as park benches and picnick tables. This park is tended with the help of Park Hall Friends who help clean the area and maintain its splendid atmosphere.”

“Very friendly people I go to coffee morning on a Tuesday morning and you can't get better company tea and toast . More people should come alone its a very good way of making new friends.”

“I had an amazing long weekend at the hideaway, with children 1 night and friends for 3 night's, the facilities were brilliant, the hot tub, towels, washing facilitates. The walk was beautiful around the lake and the boat was a fantastic bonus. All of the little extra special details milk, butter, bread, cakes, wine made the stay soo much more pleasurable. The views from the bedrooms were fantastic. I would definitely recommend this place.”

“Great value and location for our exhibition weekend. Very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Highly recommended.”

“Summary: PERFECT! Detail: Where does one start? The purchase process was perfect, Franklin knows his stuff and made the whole buying process perfect - assisting with any questions, especially around ground preparation etc. The delivery... well. Unfortunately Franklin had issues with his journey to our address which were resolved, just slightly delayed. However we didn't appreciate how big the hot tub was so it was never going to fit through our gate. Franklin didn't give up and with the help of some village folk we had the hot tub strapped to a farm vehicle and lifted it over the fence into the back garden. Franklin oversaw the whole operation. Once in the back garden the tub was up and running very quickly and between the 2 of them they had everything installed, demonstrated clearly and packaged up. The whole process and the hot tub is perfect. Many thanks Franklin and team”

“Lovely little social club with plenty of friendly locals and a nice clean crisp pint. Social club available for hire, and a beer garden with Plenty of parking.”

“It was an amazing place for a swim. Totally beautiful, I loved it. It was nice not to be time limited in the water, although at this time of year I can’t stay in for such a long time.”

“A park quite fortunate enough to have a little bit of money spent on it. It's really nice and I go most days with my dog, the guys are always out maintaining the place and there isn't much litter (there shouldn't be any). I just hope they do something good with the boat house now that is has been refurbished. Great for families”

“Had a massive breakfast, staff were friendly, pub was clean and tidy. Good value for money.”

“Very friendly, helpful staff. Great parking facilities. Great equipment. Excellent air-conditioned gym and sports hall. Excellent outdoor sports facilities. Competitive membership fees. Not the cheapest but very good value. I would recommend to anyone looking for a local out of town gym and sports centre.”

“Really pleased with my choice, stayed for 2 nights on a romantic weekend! It's well located about 5 min car journey into Buxton. Owner was helpful, kind and knowledgable about places to eat etc. The room was nice and spacious. The breakfast was very good and we needed earlier at 8am and that was not a problem, actually was owner's suggestion because we had a hiking at 9am. Considering the area, WiFi was very quick! They have a little farm with animals unfortunately we had no time for visiting but you can see them from the car park! We really do recommend!”

“Zumba lessons with Sabina Zylch- they make my week. Can the gym please have more Zumba and belly dancing lessons with her? Fantastic instructor!!!”
