Booking Cut Off: available to book until 06/11/2024 at 6pm
Schedule: We will aim to arrive at the accommodation on Friday evening and then spend all of Saturday and Sunday daytime paddling (~10am-4pm each day). Expect to be ready to leave the accommodation at 9am each day, as shuttles take a while and the car parks can get very busy. We also want to ensure there is plenty of daylight and get off the water at a reasonable hour.

You can arrange your own accommodation if you wish, however it makes things slightly easier if everyone is staying in the same place, or at least nearby!

There will be an option of finding a pub/restaurant on the Saturday evening, or alternatively you can stay at the accommodation and have your own food.
