"Sailing, rowing and launches!" Top 5 Page for this destination Stratford-upon-Avon Sports & Outdoors Tip by Jenniflower

The weather was a tad chilly for us to go rowing along the River Avon when we were there in early spring, but were it warmer, we would have definately done it!

There are a number of places you can hire a boat from, a favourite being Avon Boating.

You can hire self drive motor boats, go on cruises on the river Avon, go on electric boats and motor boats, go on vintage passenger launches, rowing, punting and canoeing!

Whatever you prefer, do try to do one of these. We went on a barge cruise ourself and thoroughly enjoyed it :)

Directions: Swans Nest Boathouse, Swans Nest Lane, Stratford-upon-Avon CV37 7LS
