Marigold Café and Boating is situated in Knaresborough on the banks of the River Nidd, one of Yorkshire’s most picturesque settings.

How best to soak up the stunning scenery along the River Nidd. Pay a visit to Marigold Boating and take one of our boats out for a paddle!

We have 36 boats that take a max of 4 people (includes children of all ages). We only have two family boats (max 6) so there may be a longer wait if both are out when you arrive.

Marigold Café
Marigold in Knaresborough enjoys an enviable riverside location at the bottom of the Nidd Gorge. And here’s a thought: how often is it the case that, after travelling far and wide, we realise that true happiness is to be found in our own backyard? That’s how we feel about this place. We think it’s beautiful and hope you will too.

On offer are a wide variety of hot and cold meals and snacks. Not only that, but you and your family can also choose from the 38 boats we have available for hire from March to October.

So if you’re popping in for a bite to eat, chilling with a nice brew, trying out your rowing skills or indulging in a luxury ice-cream – Marigold offers a delightful spot in a beautiful town.
