Where we meet
Black Park is near to Slough, Buckinghamshire and is located south of the famous Pinewood Film Studios where the James Bond Movies and Harry Potter were made. The lake is situated in a country park owned and operated by Buckinghamshire County Council.

There is ample parking in the pay and display car park (managed by Buckinghamshire County Council) which is only a few minutes walk from the lakeside. The current cost of parking is £2.50 per day, however an annual season ticket is available for £45 covering all three Country Parks. There are toilet and cafeteria facilities on site and these are suitable for the disabled. Electric Mobility scooters are available. These need to be booked and reserved in advance from the park rangers in Centenary lodge.
Black Park Lake is partially a nature reserve and partially used for various leisure activities. The Club has the use of these waters at any time but the usual sailing days are Sunday mornings from 9.30am onwards and Thursday's from about noon onwards. We look forward to seeing you.
