The Marina


Willowtree Marina, located on the Paddington Arm of the Grand Union Canal in West London, offers that rare combination of easy accessibility, security and attractiveness for so many canal based activities.

There is a quiet pride in what is on offer here and we hope you will feel this too. Willowtree Marina has set its sights on becoming a leader on the Inland Waterways. A desire to uphold the best of our canal past has been coupled to a management commitment for Customer Care, Quality Assurance and Environmental Protection.

Whatever it is you are looking for - be it moorings for boats, locations for filming, a centre for canal events, wildlife photography, walking,boat hire base, etc. - Willowtree Marina should be your first port of call.

BW Eases Boating Restrictions

Following the heavy April rainfall – which has improved reservoir holdings - British Waterways (BW) will reopen the Leicester Line of the Grand Union Canal from Monday 14 May, writes Harry Arnold.

April was the wettest on record and this has particularly helped with water levels at a number of reservoirs across the South East. The Environment Agency (EA) has removed the drought status of 19 counties but says there could still be problems in the south and east.

Boats will be able to navigate the Leicester Line - between locks 18 and 38 - between 09:00am and 16:00. And opening hours at Foxton, Watford, Buckby, Braunston, Calcutt and Stoke Bruerne are to be extended by around two hours.

The measures are due to be in place until further notice and will be reviewed after the Diamond Jubilee Bank Holiday in June.

Shortened opening hours are to remain on the Tring Summit as the reservoirs are closely linked to groundwater levels and have not responded as quickly. Similarly there will be no change to opening hours on the Oxford Summit, partly because holdings in Boddington Reservoir are being held down for engineering reasons.

Whilst the situation looks a lot brighter than it did a few months ago it’s important that we, and the boating community, aren’t complacent,” said BW operations director Vince Moran. “Reservoir holdings traditionally fall over the summer due to drier weather and an increase in traffic so it’s important that everyone uses water efficiently to keep things running smoothly right through to the end of the main boating season.”

Unsolicited Testimonial

"My 2+ years experience with Willowtree Marina has been superlative in every sense. Every single member of staff has gone above and beyond to exceed every
expectation I had of the Marina. In fact, they've been like family
offering good advice which saved me countless hours and substantial amounts of money. They were always quick to offer after hours help when I needed it, and the most professional warm-hearted support throughout
several difficult boat transitions
