The marina

Moorings

Strensham Mill sits on the River Avon in the Worcestershire countryside, close enough to the M5 and M50 to reach easily and far enough from them to hear nothing but the water.

The pontoons are anti-slip, with high-rise poles and mooring rings. We have kept moorings here for more than thirty years. Some of the boats we sell come with the option of a mooring alongside.

  • Anti-slip pontoon platforms, high-rise poles and mooring rings
  • Water and electricity to each pontoon
  • Private, gated and quiet, well off the main navigation
  • Hard standing and level ground for parking
