The Boaters Inn is a pub for all seasons. Its peaceful riverside setting within Canbury Gardens, makes it a perfect place to relax. In the summer you can watch the water world float by from the terrace, as the sun sets on another summers evening. In the winter, you can sit back and relax by the open fire and take in the friendly ambiance.
