The Rutland Belle

Rutland Water Cruises is a family-run business operating boat trips since 1986, cruising around the reservoir during daylight hours from April to October each year.

Rutland Belle plies from Whitwell on the North Shore and calls in at Normanton on the South Shore. Visitors can enjoy the scenery from the water, amidst the sailors, anglers and waterbirds, whilst listening to commentary highlighting points of interest.

Passenger Numbers: the maximum capacity is for 110 persons, across two decks, providing all-weather cover in the lower saloon.

Rutland Belle has a fully Licensed Bar, including a fantastic selection of gins from Multum Gin Parvo.

Catering is available for groups by prior arrangement.

Rutland Belle is accessible for wheelchair dependant persons from Whitwell Harbour, North Shore, for round-trips (250kg SWL). There is a vehicle drop-off area beside the pier.

We look forward to welcoming you aboard!
