Happy New Year

A Happy New Year and best wishes for 2024

It is the start of another busy year here at Derwent Water Marina and as always there is lots to do throughout the Winter to maintain and prepare the site for the Summer Season. In addition to daily checks and maintenance around the site we are busy servicing engines and boats in the workshop, decorating apartments, upgrading the shop and kit areas, and even having solar panels fitted to the roof.

Going Green!

You may have noticed that the view from our Webcam has not providing you with the stunning view of the Marina and Lake that would normally expect.  For this we can only apologise but in our efforts to lower our carbon footprint and keep the power on 24/7 we have been having Solar Panels fitted to the roof over the holiday period.  

With the work now complete,  we are delighted to confirm that the view has been restored and we are already generating power despite all the cold frosty weather!

Booking Hire & Tuition

The Summer Season will kick off on Good Friday – 29th March. We highly recommended you pre-book hire or tuition via our website, especially for weekends and holidays periods. Our online booking system will be available from the end of January / start of February.

Please keep your eye on our website or follow us on facebook and instagram to stay up to date with activities and courses here at the Marina.

Short Stay Shore Storage

Coming on holiday to the Lakes and want to bring a boat with you?  It can be difficult to find places to launch on Derwent Water so why not book ‘Short Stay Storage’ for 1 or 2 weeks stay.  Alternatively if you book to stay in one of  our apartments here on site you can bring your boat with you at no extra cost!

Simply view our website for pricing and and book your boat in for a holiday online.   

New Till System

As well all the ongoing site work, we have also been busy in the Shop and Office upgrading our Till System. This will alter the way that we do things including taking payments. There is no change to card payments taken within the shop or online via our website. However, we will no longer be able to take card payments over the phone due to increased payment security.  Currently you can pay via bank transfer (especially easy via a mobile banking app), pop in the shop or send us a good old fashioned cheque.  We will also be able to send you a Secure Payment link for an easier way to pay.   If you need to make a payment and have any queries please just contact us. 

Workshop

The workshop is extremely busy with lots of jobs already booked in.  If you need your engine serviced or any maintentance work doing on your boat it is important that you contact us as soon as possible. 

We are unable to guarantee that we will be able to get all jobs done in time for the start of the new season if you leave it too late.
