Leisure at Harleyford  »  Boat Hire & Charter

Boat Hire

Laze away an afternoon aboard a  classic slipper launch with your own skipper at the helm. A delightful way to celebrate a party, a romantic occasion or just because you can!
These charters can all be supplemented with picnics, drinks, flowers & decorations by prior arrangement.

"LEISURE"

Built JG Makers of Marlow in 1934, Leisure is a beautifully restored Thames slipper launch. 36ft in length, she can accommodate 7 guests in comfort on traditional Lloyd Loom chairs. Winner of the Andrews Trophy for restoration, maintenance & presentation – Henley Traditional Boat Rally 2004.

Imagine sipping ice cold champagne as  you and your guests gently glide away from Harleyford’s landing stage on a quiet and relaxing cruise.

"CANDIDE"

A fully restored beaver tailed launch, Candide was built in 1919 by James Taylor & Bates Ltd from mahogany on steamed oak timbers and can accommodate 4 guests plus the skipper.

With her highly varnished woodwork and polished brass fittings, she is the ideal craft for small groups or couples seeking to arrive in style or disappear on a intimate river cruise.
