With a little imagination and spirit for adventure, the entire Hicks Lodge becomes a playground. From a classic game of hide and seek to den building in the woods - there’s plenty of fun nature can offer. Need a rest? There’s a bike hire hub and a cosy cafe, featuring a fantastic play area designed for younger kids.
