The Beaulieu River is a beautiful and tranquil spot, well-loved by yachtsmen and nature enthusiasts and is progressively becoming one of the most difficult venues to secure a visitor's berth. Still, you don't need to worry as we have managed to secure 15 berths for a 2-night stay on the Walk Ashore Pontoon followed by an overnight stay at the sunny Bembridge Harbour.
The Beaulieu River and Bucklers Hard is progressively becoming one of the most difficult venues to secure a visitor's berth. Being one of the few privately owned rivers in the world, the river has been under the custodianship of the Montagu family for over four centuries.
There will be welcome drinks and a BYO (bring your own food / utensils) BBQ has been organised for the Sunday evening. No arrangements for dining have been made for the Monday evening.
