Huge thanks to Hobbs of Henley today …. My 94 year old Mum (in a wheelchair) and I went on the one-hour round-trip on the Hibernia from Henley. It was utterly sublime: stunning scenery, excellent commentary and super comfortable. However, this journey was only possible due to the great kindness – and strength! – of lovely Tom and Oli, of H of H, who physically lifted Mum, in the wheelchair, onto the boat (as the ramp was too narrow). A thousand thanks, both. Warning: we’ll be back!

Hired a cheap motorboat for an hour during Henley Regatta. Really friendly staff and great fun. Highly recommend even if we were a bit underdressed compared to the other visitors on the river

The most wonderful boat trip and afternoon tea for a 60th wedding anniversary. Endless cups of tea, delicious food, catered for allergies and luckily beautiful weather. Can highly recommend

We hired Lilibet for my 60th and took 12 (Inc us) of our close friends and family for a 4 hrs trip from Henley. We were blessed with the hottest day of the year so far. The staff were amazing in arranging the trip and on board made the perfect occasion. The boat is truly wonderful and can’t recommend enough.
