Paddlesports Hire

Enjoy an easy, leisurely and picturesque paddle, starting from right outside our shop. Explore the calm canal waters, enjoy the unique wildlife and visit great pubs.

We provide all you need to get paddling – basic tuition, buoyancy aids and paddles are all included in the price. We also provide small dry bags (to purchase) for your valuables or kayak backrests for an additional cost. All you need is to be able to swim! (This includes all children.) Dogs are welcome in our canoes - call in advance so that we can advise.
​
Hire for just an hour, several hours or the whole day. Booking always recommended to avoid disappointment! The best way to book is by phone, as we can then take all the information we need to reserve the right equipment for you. No advance payment is required - just call us on 01392 424241.

We have a choice of boats available:
Canoes
Seat 2 or 3 adults or 2 adults and 2 small
 children (sharing centre plank seat). 
Dogs are welcome in our canoes, at your own risk. 
There is space in the canoes for your picnic or camping gear!


Kayaks
Sit on top style, easy to use, like a large surfboard. Great fun, stable and easy for beginners - but you will get wet, so please bring a change of clothes.

Stand Up Paddle boards (SUPs)
Fun and easy to use, SUPs are a fast growing trend in paddling, where you stand up with a long single blade paddle . Our sturdy inflatable boards are great fun for paddling along the canal. Wear quick dry layered clothing or wetsuits & be prepared to get wet!
