Welcome to Droitwich Spa
Marina – one of the newest marinas in the country
An exciting opportunity for narrowboat owners to moor their boat (up to 70ft long) at this family run, 238 berth site, opened in March 2012, which is part of a working dairy farm, set in the delightful Worcestershire countryside.

Droitwich Spa Marina is on the Droitwich
Junction Canal which together with the Barge
Canal has been restored at the cost of £12.5m (funded
by the Heritage Lottery Fund and Advantage West Midlands). These two canals will re-opened as Droitwich
Barge Canal / the Mid-Worcestershire Ring, a short 21 mile cruising circle (the
only one in Europe!), connecting the Worcester-Birmingham
Canal to the River Severn via Droitwich Spa and the River
Salwarpe. The new route passes through the picturesque
town of Droitwich Spa with many shops, pubs and
cafes. But will also encompass the historical Catherdal
City of Worcester with the premiership league Worcester
Rugby Club at Sixways, Worcester Cathedral, Royal Worcester Porcelain,
Worcester
County Cricket Club and Worcester Racecourse.
Droitwich Spa Marina is in an excellent location, not only
to the Midland
canal network, but it is just 2 miles from Junction 5 of the M5
motorway. Once moored you are just a 15 minute stroll along the
towpath to Droitwich Spa Town or 200 metres from the Eagle
and Sun Pub overlooking the Worcester-Birmingham Canal.
