What an enjoyable day for all at Bodiam Boating station yesterday. Even though the sun refused to come out to play, we set off on a double and single kayak from the boating station. Located just 5 minutes drive away from Toasty Oasty. This efficiently and friendly boating base offers a range of options to enjoy the water that include rowing boats and paddleboarding. Our aim was to head off for a paddle to Bodiam Castle but at close to 4 miles away perhaps it was just a little too ambitious for a first try. After being fitted with inflatable jackets, we set off upwind at a fast pace having being assured that the return would be significantly easier with the wind at our back. After 30 minutes or so and a selfie or 2 we decided to abandon our Bodiam Castle goal in exchange of a cup of steaming coffee at the Lime Wharf Café back at the base instead. On our journey we passed paddle boarders, rowing boats and event canoe with excited doggies wagging tails onboard. We plan to return for a longer experience soon, highly recommended fun activity for couples and families . There really is something for everyone here from the super competive speedies to those that just enjoy want to enjoy the view.
In the Summer months the boating base also offers sunset cruises and private boat hire for up to 12 to the castle. See their events calender for fabulous Tapas evenings and live music
