Boat Hire - Covid 19 Limited Offering

From July 4th we will be able to offer a limited number of boats and experiences.

Motor Boats and Rowing Boats are available on a first come first served basis with a queue system in place and there is no pre-booking at this time. Due to cleaning and distancing processes, there are currently fewer boats available for hire.

Electric Launches “Elver” and “Flying Duck” are available to pre-book online up to 24 hours before and gaps in bookings can be taken on the day on a first come first served basis.

Large Cambridge Punts are now available for hire through our website. Please see the link below to make a booking. Also available on the day if they are free, just come to our Boathouse.

We have your safety and our staff’s safety in mind at all times, so please expect to be asked to wait in a designated place.

Throughout the hire process please be patient and listen to all instructions given by staff.

All of our hire boats and life jackets will be sanitised between uses which may mean that you have to wait a little longer than usual before being invited to a boat and we thank you for your patience.

Currently the Canoes and Ferry Crossing are unavailable. As restrictions are lifted we hope to offer more of our fleet soon.
