Description

Cliff Lakes is a premier water sports destination located between Tamworth and Birmingham, making it one of the best things to do with kids in North Warwickshire. This expansive outdoor aqua park and water sports centre features massive inflatable obstacle courses, open-water swimming, and specialized areas for younger children. It is a fantastic spot for families to burn off energy while enjoying the scenic lakeside setting.

Pricing at the park varies by activity, with the popular Aqua Park sessions starting at £25 per person. For those with younger children, the dedicated Splash World area offers a more tailored experience at a lower price point. The park uses a "pay-per-session" model, allowing you to choose exactly which water activities fit your family's budget and skill level.

If you are looking for the best place for a day out with family and kids that combines physical challenge with water-based fun, this is it. It provides an educational day out in terms of water safety and physical coordination as kids navigate the slippery inflatables. Whether you are a seasoned open-water swimmer or looking for a high-adrenaline afternoon on the obstacle course, the facilities cater to all thrill levels.

What to see

Pro-Tips

  • Arrive Early: You must arrive at least 45–60 minutes before your session for check-in and the mandatory safety briefing.
  • Booking is Essential: Sessions sell out quickly, especially during summer holidays; always book online in advance.
  • Height Restrictions: The main Aqua Park typically requires participants to be at least 1.2m tall and 8 years old; use Splash World for younger kids.

What Visitors Love

  • Safety Standards: Parents often highlight the high number of lifeguards and the thoroughness of the safety briefings.
  • Outdoor Exercise: Many love that it gets kids away from screens and doing something physically demanding in nature.
  • Great Organization: The check-in and wetsuit hire processes are noted for being efficient even during busy periods.

What Visitors Don't Like

  • Water Temperature: As it is a natural lake, it can be very cold early in the season, making wetsuits a "must-have" rather than an option.
  • Physicality: Some find the main course very tiring, so be prepared for a real workout!
