Hired a rowing boat yesterday, the young lads were packing up as the weather was a bit wet but they kindly let us have a go despite this. They wiped the seats for us and were helpful and polite. It had actually stopped raining and we really enjoyed a gentle row round the castle, the dog seemed to really enjoy it too. Would recommend and £15 for half an hour which we thought was very reasonable and plenty enough time.

We had a go after staff said good morning and asked if we were on holiday, £15 for 30mins it was quite to so we weren't rushed either which was really nice, the boats are in really good condition and the lake is clean and beautiful, with good views of the bridge, castle and wildlife. There is also an option of canoes, kayaks and paddle boards. There staff are so friendly, knowledgeable about the area and water sports and passionate about what they do and the company they work for to which they spoke very highly about, they really seemed to enjoy what they did which in return made us smile and happy to support a local company and couple of local lads by having a go on the rowing boats. One of the lads also came out to check we where OK when we went to the far part of the lake and went put of sight. Very professional, very good staff who are an asset to the company, absolutely recommend.

Hired a rowing boat and it was lovely to be rowed around Pembroke mill pond by my husband on a beautiful sunny day. The staff are wonderful, so polite and helpful. Didn’t realise how many fish are in the pond, they were jumping out of the water! Thoroughly recommend this to anyone.
