We’re delighted to announce that from the start of this season, the Nun Monkton Ferryboat will be landing on the Moor Monkton side of the Ouse. Yay!
The ferryboat runs April - October weekends and bank holidays from 11am–4pm (weather permitting).
It’s a not-for-profit venture aimed at connecting local communities which are very close (as the crow flies), but due to the river between, are more of a drive. The trip over to Beningbrough takes less than 2 minutes!
The service is run by a team of fantastic volunteers, who work in skipper and crew pairs, and the fare is £2 for adults, £1 for U18s and children under 11 go free. Dogs are welcome, and there is no charge for them. We also have a season ticket which costs £25 and gives unlimited ferryboat travel for up to 2 adults and 3 children.
Please note that it is with kind permission from Steve and Louise Barnes that we are able to land on their riverbank, and we’d like to stress that footpaths must be adhered to, and dogs must be kept on leads to safeguard livestock.
Looking forward to welcoming our Moor Monkton neighbours to Bryan Ferry, the Monkton Ferryboat.
