Events Information

In August I am organising a trip to Chester House.


It will primarily be a bus trip walk.

Catching the X46 from Northampton bus station at 09:58.

Arriving at Rushden Lakes Shopping Centre for 11:30.


The walk then follows the Nene Way to Chester House, a distance of 4km.


I would like to book the boat trip for 1pm. It lasts about 40mins.

The private hire of the boat is £60 for up to 6 people ie £10 each if there are 6 people. Otherwise it costs £12.50 per person. If we have more than 6 people then they would have to take the next one at 2pm. This all depends on availability.


The dates for the trip could either be :-

1. Friday 9th August

2. Friday 16th August


Could you please tell me on which of these dates you would be available.

The deadline for your choices is Wednesday 24th July.


We would then continue on to Great Doddington, a distance of 6km. Catching the X47 bus back to Northampton.


There is also the possibility that you could drive to Chester House and meet us there, and go for a short walk in the grounds.

There is a very nice cafe at the house, but not a lot of seating inside.


I would need payment beforehand - bank transfer preferable.
