Boating at Cliveden

Good selection of motor, and manual boats. We took out a row boat for an hr at a cost of £25. Row boats can take 3 people. If you want to take more then I think the motor boat can take 5 or 6. We booked online. Quick and easy to do so. However you do need to pay for entry into the Cliveden house national trust. We are members.good view of t house from the river.

Lovely, lazy trip on the Thames at Cliveden. The skipper gave us lots of information about the people who have lived in the house.

It was a great choice for Boating at Cliveden. We booked online, took the rowing boat which is only £25 per hour (can take up to 3 people per boat). But 1 hour was really short as we spent the first 15 minutes getting used to the rowing and manoeuvring the boat in order not to hit the branches by the Riverside.
It was a lovely experience. If you want to relax and enjoy the view, it is advisable to get a motorboat 🛥 😉

Relax on the river!
After a ovely walk down to the river.
Quite a climb on the way back up but well worth it!

Reasonable price, beautiful location and good safety advice and equipment. We loved the time we spent on the river.

The most brilliant experience of an overall superb time at Cliveden. The vintage boats are spectacularly beautiful, and this section of the river is clean, quiet and gives a view of glorious countryside and wildlife - we saw herons, red kites, coots, moorhens and swans. Seeing Cliveden House coming into view on the way back was quite something.

Boating at Cliveden was truly excellent and good value for money. You don't need to be a National Trust Member but it helps. The staff are wonderful and made booking and amending bookings for a birthday surprise so easy. Nothing was too much trouble. The Boats are really nice and easy to handle. Electric driven, they hold 5 people and have comfortable padded seating with a table in the middle and a waterproof awning to pull up and over if rain appears. I recommend a minimum of 2 hours to enjoy the river and stop for picnic lunch. We needed wheelchair access and that was readily made available even though parking is severely limited at the Boathouse. There are picnic tables available while you wait near the Boathouse and there is an ice cream concession as well as toilets. Bring your own food and drink or buy at the NT cafe before walking down to the Boathouse and you'll have a great day out!

Absolutely fantastic time! Staff were friendly and welcoming and very helpful. Perfect day to be on the river! Highly recommended
