We couldn’t agree more! We have a large fire fleet of canoes, kayaks, SUPs and bikes to keep you all entertained (and cool!) this week!

Looking forward to welcoming you!

You’ll find our shop on Exeter Quayside within all the fabulous cafes and gift shops so there’s something for everyonel!

Visit www.sadpad.com for info, prices and how to book or call us 01392 424241

Need to keep the kids entertained this half-term? ☀️

Why not head down to Exeter Quay and visit our friends and to hire a canoe, kayak or paddleboard, then enjoy a scenic trip along the canal to us here at The Double Locks.

Stop off for lunch, relax in the sunshine, and soak up the waterside views before heading back up the canal.

Perfect weather for an adventure… Just try not to fall in! 🚣
