Welcome to Coniston Boating Centre in the Lake District

On the beautiful shores of Coniston Water with stunning mountain backdrop, our friendly team will help you out on the water on a motor boat, kayak, canoe or paddle board.

Boat, bike and paddle sports hire is now closed for the Winter Season, see you in 2021!

Keeping you safe

We have put a few measures in place to ensure the safety of our staff and customers:

• One household or bubble per boat, maximum 6 people (babies are included in this 6).
• Online bookings only.
• New safe distance queuing system.
• Contact-free check-in at kiosk.
• Contact-free safety briefings.
• Every boat is sanitised between each trip.
• Every buoyancy aid is sanitised between each use.
• The Bluebird cafe is open.
• The public toilets here are open.
• We have a staggered booking process to avoid crowds, to book multiple boats you need to book multiple time slots. For example if you are wanting to book two kayaks at 10am you would need to book one at 10:00 and one at 10:15. We will then do our best to ensure you go out at the same time.
