The £35m floating resort planned for Norfolk – with 132 lodges, kids playground and water sports centre
A HUGE wellness and holiday resort hopes to open in the UK, with lodges, water sports and a spa.
Located at Askwicken Lakes in Norfolk, the £35m complex would be for families with entertainment for both kids and adults.
The floating island is designed to look like a water lily with 40 units.
On-site, 131 lodges would be located on the edge of the water, with access to the clubhouse, as well as 23 treehouses.
In the middle would be a sheltered enclave with a sunbathing terrace.
Also at the resort would be a spa, café/restaurant, and lakeside pool facilities, with water sports including rowing, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding and open water swimming.
There will be land-based activities too, with tennis courts and archery courses, as well as a kids playground and climbing wall.
If you want to get across the water quickly, plans also reveal water taxis to ferry guests from either end.
The designs have been created by Baca Architects, which are yet to be accepted.
