Hobbs of Henley Ltd

Based on the stunning River Thames in Henley, Hobbs of Henley is a fifth-generation, family-run business with a proud boating heritage dating back to 1870. With over 155 years of expertise - and two Royal Watermen on our team - we’re perfectly placed to deliver exceptional experiences on the water.

Whether you're planning a corporate party, a high-end client event, a team-building day, or a special private hire celebration, we’ll help you create an unforgettable experience. Our fleet includes large luxury passenger vessels for formal gatherings, elegant Edwardian and Olympic launches for intimate occasions, and self-drive motor launches for a relaxed, personal escape.

Looking for something unique to impress your clients or reward your team? Glide past the iconic Henley Royal Regatta course with champagne in hand - it’s the perfect way to blend business with pleasure.

Prefer regular river days without the commitment of owning a boat? Our Henley Boat Club offers a flexible luxury membership scheme, so you can enjoy the water on your own time with beautifully maintained boats, and none of the hassle.
