The Avon winds gently through the town, surrounded on both banks by green parkland and flower filled gardens. The Royal Shakespeare Theatre and Holy Trinity Church, containing Shakespeare's tomb, stand amidst the willow trees reflected in the river's shimmering water. The river flows under two fine old bridges and over the site of an ancient ford around which the town was founded. The ford gave the town its name (street–ford) but Stratford's endearing charm is to be 'upon-Avon'.
The river naturally draws people down to its grassy banks, and what better way to enjoy its tranquil waters than by boat. For over 100 years the Boathouse has been hiring out small boats and running passenger vessels on the Avon. The river, one of the finest reaches for boating in the country, has remained virtually unchanged in all this time. It is still a real delight, a pleasure to be out on its peaceful waters. Come and relax and enjoy it with us.
The Chandlery at Stratford Marina offers a wide range of boating goods and comprehensive outboard servicing. Our Boat Safety Scheme Examiner can issue Boat Safety Certificates and undertake Marine Surveys for all types of small craft in steel, GRP and timber. Our Team of Boat Builders specialise in the repair and renovation of traditional river craft as well as the building of new bespoke commissions.
Rowing Boats, Self Drive Motor Boats, Punts and Canoes are available for hire from our Boathouse, Chain Ferry and Marina.
In our hire boats you can explore over 3 miles of peaceful river, enjoy a quiet picnic under the willows or simply laze on the river and have fun. Our experienced staff will give basic lessons in rowing or punting if required...
