YMCA Fairthorne Manor

We had the most incredible day at Fairthorne Manor YMCA! The range of activities for the kids was outstanding – from Stand Up Paddleboarding and kayaking to rock climbing and abseiling, there was never a dull moment. The water slides kept everyone laughing non-stop, and the giant bouncing pillow was a huge hit!

Every activity was well organised, safe, and so much fun – the kids were constantly smiling and building their confidence while trying new things. The staff were friendly, helpful, and full of energy, which made the whole experience even better.

What really stood out was the value – for everything that’s included, the price is unbelievably cheap. For a full day of adventure, laughter, and memory-making, it’s worth every penny and more.

We came away with amazing memories, tired but very happy kids, and a promise that we’ll definitely be back soon. Fairthorne Manor is a hidden gem and I can’t recommend it enough!

Fairthorne family fun day was amazing!  We all had so much fun and our girls got to try activities they had never tried before.  The staff were brilliant and made our girls feel safe and supported teaching them technique and skill so they could build confidence snd participate fully.

We had the most amazing family day at Fairthorne Manor. The staff were friendly and great! Perhaps some more / better signage to the various events would be good, we missed the pond dipping (we only found this once we were at the top of the kayaking queue) and we never found the nature / scavenger hunt. The price of the tickets was affordable and we spent a full day doing new and fun activities.
