Location

Eton Thameside is situated on the site of the former Rafts Boathouse, which played a significant role in the history of Eton College as the primary boating facility for the institution’s students. For generations, future leaders, statesmen, and monarchs have rowed and coxed on the River Thames, and it was here that the famous Eton Boating Song was born.

Located in the heart of historic Eton, the property is close to the town’s High Street, which offers a range of shops catering to everyday needs, restaurants, and antique stores. Windsor, accessible via Windsor Bridge, provides additional shopping amenities, theaters, and Windsor Castle.

Convenient transportation options include rail connections to London Waterloo (approximately 56 minutes) from Windsor & Eton Riverside and to Paddington (approximately 38 minutes) via Slough from Windsor Central. The property is also easily accessible by car via the M4, Heathrow Airport, Central London, the West Country, and the M25.

Recreational activities abound in the area, with golf courses at Sunningdale, Wentworth, and Datchet; horse riding stables in Windsor and Ascot; polo and horse riding opportunities in Windsor Great Park; and boating on the River Thames.
