How to find the Three Shires:

All boat trips & cruises depart from Lock 18 moorings, Woolsthorpe by Belvoir 

Make for the Dirty Duck Public House Postcode: NG32 1NY.  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.

Access into the boat includes steps

Do not confuse Woolsthorpe by Belvoir, with Woolsthorpe by Colsterworth – you’ll miss the boat  😉 

Parking by kind permission of Lynne & JF, licensees of the Dirty Duck
