Accommodation
locally is excellent across the range including hotel, Bed and Breakfast
and self catering (Leckmelm Farm and Lochside cottages are within
walking distance of the boat shed).

Maintenance
Modern finishes
allied with traditional building methods make for a light, strong
boat, and the use of mastic between the lands (overlaps) makes these
boats watertight from launch with none of the traditional ‘taking
up’.
A good hose down and a lick of varnish every three
years will keep her looking pristine for many years. And if you damage
a plank, indeed any part of a clinker boat, it’s simplicity
itself to repair.
