Our boat, The Capability, is setting sail for tours of the Lake on weekends, bank holidays and Thursdays and Fridays during school holidays. Join our knowledgable skippers for a short pleasure trip of approximately 20 minutes and enjoy views of the House, Lakeside Trail and Walled Garden.

The jetty is located at the entrance to the Bird Garden from the Lakeside path.

Please note that in adverse weather conditions the boat is unable to sail.

 

How can I book?

The Capability departs from the jetty in the Bird Garden and payment is taken by the Boat Skipper on the day. Please note, it is cash only at the jetty or you can pay by card at the Courtyard Information Centre.

Is there a charge?

Boat rides are charged at £3 per person or £10 for a family of 4 (2 adults & 2 children). Charges apply to both Harewood Members and general visitors.
