Our boats can only be hired by a family unit or support bubble.

A great way for your group to to explore the lake at their own pace – and in their own space.

Staggered departures

All boats departures and arrivals have been staggered.

There will be plenty of space for you, your family/bubble and staff to keep 2 metres apart.

We have hand sanitation stations at our ticket office and pier too.
