Fantastic experience, highly recommend! - We had an amazing kayaking trip led by Kieran. His expertise, passion, and guidance made the experience unforgettable. Everything was brilliantly organised and felt safe. We had never done kayaking before, and the weather wasn’t the best (being early April), but it was a brilliant trip. The lake is absolutely beautiful, the sights really interesting and the kayaks really easy to manoeuvre. Highly recommend! Thanks Kieran!!

More than Kayaking - First off our guide Kieran was such a pleasure to be taken around the lake with so knowledgeable and passionate about the lake and all that surrounds it! We had amazing weather and you could see how genuinely pleased he was that he could share the beauty of the lake with the group! A few stops off with even more history something we didn't realize came with the trip and it just made it even more special! Will definitely return again someday!

Stunning day out with the wonderful Kieran - We had the most fantastic day with Kieran, you couldn't ask for anyone with a nicer personality, he even took his hoody off and gave it to my child as he said he was cold! So laid back, and the kayaking was more stunning than I anticipated. Also enjoyed the rope swing and lake padarn is the perfect spot. Thank you for a wonderful memory. We also love the keepsake photos. Kieran great with kids and adults too, definitely recommend.

Fabulous - a must try! - Fabulous kayaking experience and suitable for any age, no previous experience required and equipment provided. I would highly recommended. Kieran - the owner - was a terrific, informative group leader, keeping a close eye on the group, assisting as required and providing lots of information on the locality. Wild swim optional but great fun! The location is breathtaking and the pace of the session allows you to thoroughly take in the surroundings and wildlife. My little one pronounced it "Amazing!". Kieran kindly took and shared photos too which was appreciated. I'd recommend those interested check out the Paradise Adventures website for full details and to book, which was a seamless process. For those not familiar with the area n terms of the location where you meet it's worth being aware that you can make a good morning/afternoon of it with the local amenities. Bring some chairs/rug and a picnic for relaxing before/after the experience - there are plenty of areas to set up by the water. There are also free, well maintained toilets at the car park you meet in. Car park charge is a daily rate (£5) and takes cash, card or you can pay via an app. There are several little shops and the national slate museum to hand too.
