Welcome to Gosfield Lake Resort, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of the Essex countryside. For decades, we've been providing families, water sports enthusiasts, and nature lovers with an authentic lakeside escape that celebrates the simple pleasures of outdoor life.
Our Story
Set around our beautiful natural lake in Gosfield, near Halstead, our resort has grown from a passionate water skiing community into a beloved destination that offers something for everyone. What began as a dedicated water skiing venue has blossomed into a full-service lakeside resort, while never losing sight of what matters most – creating lasting memories in the great outdoors.
What Makes Us Special
At Gosfield Lake Resort, we believe in the traditional back-to-basics family experience. No theme park gimmicks or over-commercialised attractions – just pure, simple enjoyment of nature, water, and quality time together.
Our resort centres around the spectacular lake, where you'll find:
- Championship Water Skiing – Home to Gosfield Water Ski Club, offering top-class coaching from National champions
- Open Water Swimming – Perfect for triathletes and swimmers of all levels in our accessible 5-foot-deep waters
- Camping & Caravanning – Purpose-built facilities for those who want to stay and explore
- The Annexe – Boutique accommodation with stunning lake views for those seeking extra comfort
- Inflatable Rides – Adrenaline-pumping fun for ages 8 and up
A Day at the Lake
Whether you're packing a picnic for the lakeside, watching the excitement of water skiers cutting across the water, letting the children play in our dedicated play area, or simply relaxing with refreshments from the Snack Shack, Gosfield Lake Resort offers the perfect setting to unwind and reconnect.
