Boat Hire


Parking

There are about 40 car parking spaces onsite available to use at the moment – which should be enough to meet demand. The top row of cars on the hill are usually staff cars so you can normally block these in (please ask).

Unfortunately the little car park at the end of the lane has been declined planning permission and has closed.

Please car share where possible, and leave plenty of time to get parked and changed.


Derwentwater is the perfect playground for anyone wanting to get out on the water and enjoy all that it has to offer. Being shallower than some of the other lakes, means that the water is often warmer – which is a welcome bonus if you want to splash, swim and have fun. The unique setting and direction of the lake makes for interesting winds and fun sailing activities, whilst still having sheltered bays available in which to kayak more sedately. Here at Nichol End, we invite you to enjoy an activity you love, or try something completely new.
