Cropredy Waterside & Marina

Claydon Road, Cropredy, Banbury OX17 1JP
01295 758911

Overview

A quiet spot on the South Oxford Canal

Cropredy Marina is one of those places that’s got everything. Along with all the stuff you’d expect from a good marina, you’ll find views of the Oxfordshire countryside, loads of cruising routes and a nearby village with two great pubs. When you’ve enjoyed some quiet time by the water, Banbury is just five miles away – it’s a historic market town, so there’s castles, museums and a bunch of shops to explore.

This one’s a really spacious marina – it’s got 355 berths. For cruising, you’ve got the southern half of the English canal network, plus access to the Thames and onwards. It’s a pretty special spot.

High Use Premium mooring package

A High Use Premium mooring differs from a Residential mooring, although it still offers some of the same benefits. With a Residential mooring, the marina can be used as your official UK-registered address. With a High Use Premium mooring, however, the marina cannot be used as your registered address, so you will need an alternative permanent address. You may stay on your boat seven nights a week and can receive post at the marina. The benefits include:

  • Your own secure post box - so your mail can be sent directly to the marina.
  • A parcel collection point for your larger parcels
  • A storage box to store your belongings securely
  • One free wash & dry per week in our on-site laundry facility
  • One free pump out per month

If you choose an annual contract, as well as access to all of the facilities you also receive:

  • Explore 100 – Free stop-overs at other marinas in the Aquavista group
  • Marina Swap - Easily swap to another Aquavista marina up to twice per year
  • Moor Benefits – Access to our exclusive Moor Benefits programme including 10% off Diesel and 5% off Gas
