The Club was founded in 1966 and managed by a committee of volunteers. Hollowell offers great dinghy sailing, windsurfing and ... excellent facilities at very attractive subscription rates. The Club caters for sailors of all abilities, and is particularly proud of its Junior membership and youth squad which meets regularly throughout the season. In 2012 the club was recognised for this by winning the RYA Club of the Year. Hollowell Reservoir is set in an attractive valley in the North of Northamptonshire just off the A5199 near the villages of Guilsborough, Creaton, and Hollowell. Leicester is approximately 20 miles north, and Northampton 10 miles south. When full the water area is 114 acres, with ample dinghy parking within easy reach of 5 slipways. Sailboard racks are also available Between the Clubhouse and the water’s edge there is a large grassed area used for barbecues, picnics and sunbathing. Clubhouse Facilities: The Clubhouse was fully refurbished and extended on 2008 and provides changing rooms, toilets and washing facilities including hot showers. There is a dry lounge which offers spectators a vantage point from which to watch the sailing and perhaps enjoy a drink from the licensed bar.
