D’Oyly Carte Island is a unique two-acre private island on the River Thames near Weybridge, Surrey and provides the perfect location to moor your boat for total tranquillity and enjoyment.
Access to this beautiful island is by its own private footbridge which links secure parking for 40 cars on the mainland. This unique combination provides a beautiful balance of convenience with seclusion.
The centrepiece on the island is Eyot House, a Grade II listed Victorian private property with 13 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms and a spectacular ball room.
The 1.9 acre island is steeped in history having been bought by Richard D’Oyly Carte, hence the name, in 1890. He was a former Gilbert and Sullivan opera producer and the hotelier behind The Savoy Hotel in London’s west end.
Within a 15-minute walk, you’ll find the buzzing High Street in Weybridge and a host of independent coffee shops, acclaimed restaurants, as well as a varied and comprehensive shopping offer.
With just 30 moorings provided around the whole Island, the site has a wonderful feeling of exclusivity compared to the larger capacity marinas in the vicinity. Our moorings are provided against a finger pontoon, with water and electricity next to each berth.
Opposite the moorings, the tree-lined towpath forms part of the Thames Path – a walking and cycling route stretching over 180 miles from the Cotswolds to the sea.
You are welcome to visit D’Oyly Carte Island to see the moorings, please contact us to arrange your viewing of the boat.
