The Holtams Hot Air Balloon

Our Balloon.

"1000ft up in the air, all you can hear are children shouting and dogs barking"

Our hot air balloon is a wonderful experience and launching from Ambergate whenever weather conditions permit, is always an unforgettable occasion.

Below is a scrapbook of photos taken at a typical launch.

Beautiful Views, Peace and Tranquility. Just being ushered along on a warm air breeze, but as they say "what goes up must come down" - as is the case here - in a field of unsuspecting dairy cows !

The Balloon is in touch at all times with the groundcrew, and within minutes they appear to pack the balloon away ready for the next adventure.
