Crocodile Warning!
When visiting the pub over the next few weeks you'll find tall fencing to keep you away from the waters edge. Don't worry about the signs. No crocodiles have been spotted in the area. The fencing is there for health and safety reasons while a £15,000 investment is being made to improve our moorings.
New quay heading is to be installed over much of the pub's side of the Pleasure Boat Dyke. Once the work is complete the distribution of the long term and day visitor moorings will be rearranged.
Visitor moorings will, in future, be limited to the wider parts of the dyke, with more long term moorings being available at the head of the dyke. This should reduce the number of boat movements where space is much tighter and so make things a little safer for those less familiar with the dyke.
Moorings
We can offer overnight and long term moorings. Please use the phone numbers or email address on the Contact page to find out about vacancies.
We're not always as busy as this...
...but as there are times when most of the fleet from Hunters Yard come to visit and their crews book in at our restaurant and stay overnight, it's always a good idea to book.
