Outing Highlights
Thursday mornings that feel like a reset
Sessions usually run on a Thursday morning, offering a reliable weekly window for carving out time for yourself—whether you pick a loch session that stays mostly dry or a longer river outing.
Skill-focused coaching from Biscuit
The program is built around confidence‑boosting instruction: start with basic strokes on the loch or refine intermediate techniques on the river, benefiting from Biscuit’s passion and coaching talent.
Coffee, cake and conversation alongside paddling
Every outing pairs paddling with locally roasted coffee, tea and biscuits—an important social element that equals the on‑water learning for many participants.
