Welcome to Grassholme

We are County Durham’s only sailing and watersports club. Located at Grassholme Reservoir near Middleton in Teesdale, in the North Pennines National Landscape, we have 49 hectares of water which allows plenty of space for learning, racing, cruising and paddling.

Hi all, Due to the forecast for 40mph gusts at the club tomorrow, the Round the Lake trophy is being postponed by one week. It will now be raced on 6th August.
