Astbury Water Sports

Astbury Water Sports Centre sits on the shore of Astbury Mere Country Park, just off Newcastle Road in Congleton, Cheshire.

Operating under the Peak Activity Centres brand, it serves as the area's main hub for on-water pursuits, offering kayaking, canoeing, windsurfing, sailing, and stand-up paddleboarding alongside land-based outdoor activities.

Sessions are instructor-led, with all staff holding outdoor first aid certification and enhanced DBS checks. The centre holds AALA and AAIAC accreditation as well as the Learning Outside the Classroom Award.

Boat hire runs seasonally from April to October, and advance booking is required for instructed sessions.
