I can't recommend Andy highly enough! I bought this paddle boarding session as a birthday gift for my husband, and as complete beginners we weren't quite sure what to expect. Andy was incredibly clear, patient and encouraging from start to finish, which meant the whole session felt relaxed, enjoyable and surprisingly easy to pick up. His guidance gave us the confidence to challenge ourselves, and we came away feeling really proud of what we'd achieved. As an added bonus, Andy even took some photos of us on the water so we have some great memories to look back on. We had such a fantastic morning that we're already talking about buying our own paddle boards! Thank you, Andy, for making my husband's birthday gift such a lovely memorable experience.Posted on Google![]()

Andy and his team were absolutely perfect for our stag do. We arrived extremely low energy and hungover and he understood the assignment immediately and gave us lots of different options. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and I will be back many times throughout the next few years. Lots of fun!Posted on Google![]()

I had a 1-2-1 paddle boarding lesson with Andy. He covered every detail about how-to and what to look out for. He is clearly passionate and knowledgeae about what he does and his advice was detailed so you can understand reasoning behind certain things. 100% recommend. Great location for paddle boarding too as on a quieter side of the river.Posted on Google![]()

Brilliant! Andy was a patient and enthusiastic instructor - taking out myself and 12 year old daughter onto the Thames for a kayaking session. The whole session was very relaxed. Toilets and lockers available. We felt safe at all times. Will definitely go again. If you’re hesitating - then don’t - go for it. Suitable for beginners and lovers of water.Posted on Google![]()

Absolutely brilliant venue. No crowds and peaceful area to kayak or paddle board in. Parking was great, access to the river was so easy. Lockers available, waterproof phone cases available. Place for spectators to sit and wait for you on the deck by the river. Andy and his staff were very friendly and welcoming. Even people cycling past, stopped and asked us how our experience was and then they booked up a canoe for 4 people straight away. Great fun. Highly recommend.Posted on Google![]()

It was an enjoyable day of paddle boarding. Checking in was thorough and easy with clear instruction. Pub stops, wild ducks, watching people picnicking and celebrating occassions at the banks, it was such fun!Posted on Google![]()

Lovely friendly welcome. Accommodated our mini sausage dog and really helpful getting us all on board. Two adults and two teens. Lovely hour spent paddling along the river. No rush. Highly recommend!!
