Cherwell Boat House

Rowing boats, canoes and punts for hire: what a great idea for a bit of family fun while you are in Oxford.

There are over 80 traditional hand crafted punts, built on the premises, that are available to rent. A sport for all ages from 7 to 77, with younger and older welcome as passengers.

The Cherwell Boathouse is an iconic Oxford punt station and restaurant on the banks of the river Cherwell. Established in 1904, the family run Boathouse now has over 80 handmade punts in the water and is an idyllic spot for punting, dining and picnics.
