Stoney Cove

At the risk of sounding like an acceptance speech at the Oscars, none of this would be possible without the quarrymen who began shaping Stoney Cove over one hundred years ago! As they quarried the stone with their crude tools, they could not have dreamt that they were creating the perfect scuba-diving venue. The result of all the hard work is 13 acres of clear, sheltered spring water with depths of 7, 22 and 36 metres, accompanied by facilities, equipment and training that are second to none! Stoney Cove's reputation for being the best inland diving centre reaches far and wide. It's not unusual to meet somebody diving half-way around world on the Great Barrier Reef who did their training here in the heart of Leicestershire.

The Dive School provides training from your short try dive right up to instructor level with fully qualified and enthusiastic divemasters and instructors. We have a 4m deep training pool which is available for hire.
