Knaresborough Boats - Blenkhorn's

Knaresborough Boats - Blenkhorn's Boat hire on the River Nidd in Knaresborough. A selection of boats is available, seating up to 6 people of any age (life jackets provided). See you soon!

No visit to Knaresborough is complete without a trip down the river in these iconic green/red rowing boats, established over 100 years ago! No booking required just turn up when ready. We can offer an accompanied rowing service for those who are unable to do it themselves due to health, age or for parents with children in tow, subject to demand at quieter time. Find us just after the bridge, next

to The World's End pub. Best place to park is over the road in Conyngham Hall car park, Bond End, Knaresborough, HG5 9AY.
