D’Oyly Carte Island lies close to Weybridge and Shepperton on the River Thames in Surrey. 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.

For many years, the Island has been a popular place to moor for leisure craft. Recent investment by new owners, who are also carefully restoring the private Grade II listed house which occupies the western end, now provides the most perfect place to moor.

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 good quality shopping offer. Access into London is also convenient with frequent train services to London Waterloo in under 40 minutes.

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 in a linear arrangement against the bank or against a pontoon, with water and electricity next to each berth. Access to the Island is via a security gate and a footbridge from the Weybridge (south side) of the River Thames. 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.
