Fantastic place, can't wait to see it fully completed! Was very impressed with the tour we had today. Love the bunk accommodation and how they've really catered for all needs.

Good priced hot drinks and food. Very cold watching matches as very exposed. Bonus- low flying aircraft.

Watch our local under 9's play football here most weekends. Excellent facilities for both sporting and commercial activities alike, great little cafeteria and plenty of parking. Friendly helpful staff are always on hand if needed, and there are lots of ideas for future development too. Highly recommended.

I hired the Nest for my daughter's 5th birthday party. The room was amazing - loads of space for the entertainment and food. The toilets were clean and idea as they didn't have to leave the room. Really impressed and will be hiring again!
