Punts

WE ARE NOW CLOSED FOR WINTER AND WILL RE-OPEN MID-MARCH 2021

Our punts have now finished hire for the season and will be returning to the water Spring 2021

Avon Boating have one of the largest fleets of self-hire rowing boats, punts and canoes in the country, and there is nothing finer than enjoying the water from a traditional English punt.

All our punts are lovingly maintained by our in-house boat builders and we are proud to watch people enjoying them throughout the season.
