Activities

Roughly a 30 minute walk from the flat, on the sea front with amusements and plenty of shops around. Adventure island is a great day out whether you are a thrill seeker or just enjoy the theme park experience. The park offers other activities such as mini gold and free entry, so if you would just like to look around and grab a hot dog that's fine!
