There is something for everyone at the Silverlake activity hub from tennis courts to paddle boarding, whilst those looking to relax and unwind can head for a restorative swim and sauna at the shared pool and spa.

Rest, revive and recharge at the Hurricane Spa by reclining in the heated infinity pool after enjoying a massage or facial in one of the treatment rooms. Take in the surrounding beauty of the idyllic lakeside views from the spa’s own private beach or blow off steam in state-of the art gym.
The property’s proximity to the neighbouring lakes means it will be hard to entice yourself away from the water, with kayaks, paddleboards and fishing aplenty. For those who prefer to stay on dry land why not zip wire over the water instead? Or grab a bike and take the family off for beautiful bike ride on the wider estate stopping off for a picnic in a tranquil spot whilst nature spotting the local birds and wildlife.The beautiful county of Dorset is a popular tourist spot, an area known for its rolling dales, protected heathlands and breath-taking UNESCO-heritage Jurassic coastline. The property is within reaching distance of fabulous beaches, including the beautiful shingle Ringsted Bay, which at low tide reveals a wide expanse of sand. It is the perfect beach for quiet and calm surrounded by neighbouring farmlands. For those who like to get out and explore the stunning countryside, we recommend a visit to Moreton Forest with a range of tree-filled walks amongst the towering conifers.
A trip to the Smuggler’s Inn, a historic 13th Century pub with unbeatable sea views of the Isle of Portland is an absolute must with an excellent selection of ales to sample and delicious food, the perfect spot for a pitstop after a lovely scenic stroll.If you’re looking to take in the area’s fascinating history then you won’t be disappointed with the thousand-year-old Corfe Castle, a majestic ruin established by William the Conqueror, just a short drive away.
