river thames day boat hire

from our private riverside mooring

Enjoy a lazy day cruising the majestic River Thames in our electric private hire riverboat, the ‘Runnymede’, which can accommodate a maximum of 6 passengers.

Launching from our private mooring residents and non-residents may hire the riverboat for just an hour or for a full day to explore the beautiful stretches of the river Thames close to the hotel.

In one direction is Shepperton where you will pass through the town of Staines and the village of Laleham where you can stop at a choice of riverside pubs for a quick drink or a bite to eat.

Alternatively you can travel upstream to Royal Windsor and take in views of the castle from the river Thames.

The boat is also fully covered so if the British weather does its worst it won’t ruin your day out on the Thames!
