Racecourse Marina Windsor

If you’re looking to relax in luxury, then Racecourse Marina Windsor is certainly the place for you.

Tucked away via a short millstream, 500 yards upstream from Boveney lock, Racecourse Marina is perfectly placed for cruising one of the most beautiful reaches of the Thames. Picturesque towns and landmarks are aplenty, and Cookham, Cliveden, Marlow and Henley-on-Thames, are only a day trip away.

Having recently benefitted from a £1m investment, the marina now boasts new fully-serviced pontoons, first-rate shoreside facilities and the renowned GoGo’s bar and restaurant. Guests and berth-holders are encouraged to have a bite to eat on the restaurant’s rooftop terrace and take in the glorious surroundings and views over Windsor Racecourse.

If you can prise yourself away from the stunning waterways and marina amenities, a short stroll will take you into the bustling town of Windsor, complete with boutique shops, restaurants, and of course the Queen’s favourite weekend home Windsor Castle.

An exclusive development of 34 luxury, two and three bedroomed lodges is located alongside the marina, allowing you to combine your time onboard with the comfort of a waterside lodge if you fancy a longer break away.

Readily accessible by road and with trainlines into London and Reading providing multiple routes to the home counties and beyond, Racecourse Marina makes for the perfect weekend retreat and is certain to have everything you’re looking for.
