Kayaking on Our Estate

New to Clawford Lakes

Get back to nature, losing yourself in the peace and serenity of your surroundings on a kayak, at our Devon Leisure Lake. With kayak’s available for use during your stay, you can get as close to the water as possible without actually getting in (hopefully!) Kayaking is suitable for all ages, it’s great fun for small and larger groups, and it’s easy to enjoy.

The waters of the Leisure Lake make it ideal for those new to kayaking and we can teach you all the basics in our pre-bookable group tuition classes. If you have experience, your kayak and paddle is yours to enjoy once our safety briefing is complete. Either way, in no time, you’ll be paddling to explore the corners of the lake or sitting back and floating along, taking in the beautiful scenery.

Guests will be invited to pre-book free of charge sessions in advance of their stay.
