    The location is fantastic, a short walk to town and carpark but very quiet. Stunning views across The Thames. The barge is modern and spacious, fun design, 2 ensuite cabins. We enjoyed a night cap up on deck after an evening at the races....

    Perfect location, central but tucked away in a quiet spot and right next to The Boatman (which was great for dinner). Parking located next door at the Riverside railway station, very reasonable rates and easy. Loved the cleanliness, set up and...

    The location is fabulous, it’s peaceful but also perfect for wandering around Windsor. Parking is close by, at the railway station, and it’s just a 5 walk to the barge.

    Great location and great host. We had a great time as a family and enjoyed feeding the passing ducks, swans and geese every morning from the window. The glasses of wine on the back seating area also went down a little too easily in the afternoon...

Hi I'm James. I have owned the barge for over a year. I'm easy going, fun, respectful and trustworthy. We are thrilled to welcome our guests onboard and to help you settle in, we've put together a welcome manual with all the information you need to know about the boat, its amenities, the surrounding areas and everything else of interest to make your stay as pleasant as possible. The barge itself is amazing, very deceiving from the outside It's full of quirks. It's remarkable to wake up and open the little port hole windows to swans swimming past is sublime. It's beautiful and peaceful. You can watch changing of the Guards up at the castle which is a must see. The barge is absolutely great - good location, easy to find and comfortable and very different from the norm!”
Situated on the River Thames at Windsor, close to Eton Bridge and the town centre, we have this very unique waterside experience. Local places to visit include The long Walk & Great Park which lies outside the Castle boundary, and views of the castle. Windsor Castle is open to visitors throughout the year. Eton College one of England’s oldest and most prestigious boarding schools. Legoland Windsor Resort has something for the whole family. Great places to eat & relax.
