Getting to Henley Royal Regatta

  • Venue: Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire
  • When: Usually early July — check the official dates before booking
  • Drive from Poole: about 2 hours, before event-day traffic

On the day

Henley's bridge and town centre are congested throughout Regatta week, so we plan around the peak times and agree a pickup point away from the busiest streets.

Who books it

Enclosure guests, rowing clubs and hospitality groups. Alongside our own cars we work with partner operators and a network of licensed drivers, so several vehicles for one group is straightforward.
