Try our colourful kayaks and spend some relaxing time on the Boating lake at Thompson Park, Burnley.
Our range of Fatyak kayaks are the latest design in sit-on-top kayak, which means you don’t need any previous experience to be able to use them.
The Boathouse and ice cream parlour is open weekends and school holidays from April to September. We also have traditional rowing boats for hire, as well as our popular Canadian canoes.
Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
Private bookings for exclusive use of the lake and all our boats/kayaks can be arranged for corporate team building events, birthday parties, scout groups and any other group event by calling 01282 664400.

The single seater can be hired for just £2.00 for 30 minutes, and its unique stable lines ensures that children, sport and recreational kayakers will all have an enjoyable time.
Our 2 seater (£4.00 for 30 minutes) is designed to be used as a tandem kayak with the lighter paddler sitting in the front, however due to its flexible seating design it can be paddled solo by sitting in the centre position or used as a family 3 seater with room for a child in the centre position.
