Don't know when it opens, but the council recently advertised the job of leisure attendant for the summer season.

i don't think it is the boats wi the oars anymore, it's yon things wi pedals. No, don't mean bikes, but the boaty things wi pedals. Whatever they are called.

It was open at this time two years ago.
Last year it didn't open until the start of summer holidays, so I'm guessing it will be the same this year.
