Hire

We have some lovely traditionally rigged sailing boats suitable for family picnics and adventures on the River Dart. From Dittisham there are over 10 miles of navigable river and creeks, up to Totnes or right down to the sea at Dartmouth Castle. The river is a safe and beautiful stretch of water, ideal for picnics and pottering. All our hire boats are easy to handle and those with some boating skills will need only a short introductory briefing. If you have no boating experience we are happy to offer tuition. Boats are fully equipped with oars, engines, buoyancy aids, safety gear and fuel.

Boats are available to hire for a few hours, days or weeks [see rates]. Our boats are kept at the boat park at Dittisham

[see map], and we may be able to arrange a mooring at your holiday cottage on the Dart.
