“My grandchildren had a brilliant time paddle boarding in the most beautiful surroundings. It's a 150 mile round trip for us but well worth the drive. Spencer and his team are really friendly and helpful.”
“Hired a board last weekend for my daughter. Spencer was super friendly, and we had a great time paddling to Flatford Mill and back as per his recommendation. Will definitely be back!”
“The guy that runs this place is so fun and clearly loves Dedham. I highly recommend the paddle boards which are well maintained. Excellent experience — thank you for making our day so special.”
“Incredibly helpful and friendly staff with access to a large maintained carpark.”
“Hired a paddle board a few weeks ago and we really enjoyed the setup and area.”
“Great service this morning!”
The river's waiting.
Open seven days a week at Dedham. Call, WhatsApp or just wander down to the water — we'll sort the rest.
