We have a number of rowing boats on site, ranging from single handers, two person and for crews of six to eight. This year we have complimented our fleet by introducing sculling boats.
We run 75 minute sessions for absolute beginners as well as courses leading to further qualifications. Click on courses to find out what we are running this year or ring Longridge to arrange a bespoke course for your group.
