Pangbourne Cream Tea Cruise

Pangbourne Cream Tea Cruise

 

The cruise departs Caversham Pier at 11:00 and returns at approx. 14:00.

This round trip cruise, with reserved table, steward service and cream tea, soon leaves the riverside homes of Caversham behind. Entering open countryside passing islands before arriving at Mapledurham. We transit through the lock and onwards to Pangbourne entering a new reach of the Thames.

 

From Mapledurham we will sail the unspoilt reach to Pangbourne Meadows turning just before Whitchurch Toll Bridge (which makes a good photo opportunity as it spans the river). From inside the vessel or out on the foredeck there are great river views, the excitement of passing through a lock both up and downstream and glimpses of large manor houses.

 

The steward and crew will serve cream tea consisting of scones, Cornish clotted cream and jam*. Don't feel compelled to stay inside, take in the air on the foredeck or snap away with your camera out the window.

*Our scones are baked fresh in an artisan bakery where nuts may be present thus we can not be 100% sure that no contact with nuts has taken place.

 

Please let us know of any allergies or dietary requirements in advance.
