How to find the Three Shires:
Boat trips & cruises depart from Lock 18 moorings, Woolsthorpe by Belvoir.
Make for the Duck at Woolsthorpe Public House, NG32 1NY (formerly the Dirty Duck). Enter the pub car park and park on the left hand side immediately inside the gates.
Cross the canal bridge, turn right and walk up the surfaced towpath, passing Lock 17, to arrive at Lock 18 moorings (allow 10 minutes for this walk to be comfortable). Our skipper & crew will be there to greet you.
Sorry, we are unable to accommodate dogs on the boat
Access into the boat includes steps
Do not confuse Woolsthorpe by Belvoir, with Woolsthorpe by Colsterworth – you’ll miss the boat 😉
