Features

The seafront Lake Grounds is referred to as the jewel in Portishead’s crown. This relatively unspoilt area, surrounded by trees and bushes, is where families enjoy picnics and you will see cricket being played at weekends.
This is also home to the town’s bowls club and tennis club. Football coaches and running clubs utilise the green open space, while others keen to keep fit use the promenade gym equipment.
A boating lake operates throughout the warmer months of the year and you will find a variety of play equipment to keep younger visitors happy.
The Lakeside Café is situated alongside the lake and play parks, while the Lido Café, run by volunteers, is at the opposite end of the seafront, adjacent to the open air pool.
