Boatman hours and tides, clubhouse and office hours

Generally the club house is opened by the cleaner or the first person on duty, and closed by the last.

Over the summer, the Club House will be open for members to use the facilities (including self service tea and coffee in the bar area):
– during the week – during staff working hours, generally opening by 09:00 and closing around 17:00 or when the boatman finishes in the evening;
– at weekends – the cleaner opens up, typically around 09:00, and a small team of volunteers will close up, typically around 17:00.
These times will be extended, and the bar opened, for the events advertised in the Events Calendar.
