There's lots of boat hire to choose from! Let our electric motor boats take the strain. Or maybe you'd like to row, row, row your boat in our rowing boats? All well behaved dogs are welcome on board. Woof!
Try out sit on top kayaks, open Canadian canoes and have fun splashing about on paddle boards.
Please note we offer 1 hour maximum hire for motor boats and rowing boats, this is to keep all the hire boats at one end of the lake so we can provide safety cover.
