D'oyly Carte Island, Weybridge

THE WALKTHROUGH

THE STERN

Step aboard and you'll find yourself on the thoughtfully designed stern, an outside space that's perfect for relaxing and socialising, whether you're moored up or cruising. It features wraparound seating, with weather-resistant, removable cushions and space for a free-standing dining table. Four deck lights create a warm, welcoming atmosphere as the sun settles for the evening.

It's an attractive, practical space, with integrated storage compartments and a lockable cabinet alongside the steering position. Finally, the whole stern has a retractable, fitted cover, providing shelter from the sun or rain, and making this a space to enjoy, all year round.

THE LIVING AREA

You'll enter the boat's beautiful living area via three centrally positioned steps which also double as discreet integrated storage space. The elegant, open plan space has been carefully designed with comfort and functionality in mind. It features attractive display shelving and cupboards crafted in oak, and thanks to a generous double-glazed skylight, the whole space is filled with soft, natural light. There's a choice of luxurious carpet or hardwood flooring too.

Contemporary, wall-mounted radiators and an attractive Diesel stove that creates immediate warmth and a welcoming, cosy feel. We've added a 42" flat-screen TV, mounted in a discreet recessed panel, and there's plenty of room to add your own handpicked freestanding furniture, creating a space that's all your own.

THE KITCHEN
Alongside the living area, in the same open-plan space, you'll find your modern L-shaped kitchen that's been beautifully designed to maximise space and offer a luxurious, high-spec finish.

Shaker style, dove grey cabinets with antique pewter handles and kick boards contrast with limed oak hardwood-effect flooring. There's a built-in double oven and four-burner hob, and an underslung butler sink and draining board are neatly set into the smooth surface. We've added all the modern appliances you'd expect - including an integrated dishwasher, washer dryer, microwave, fridge and freezer - and some you might not, a wine cooler.

A centrally located island lets you prep while you chat to guests, and features clever storage as well as an integrated high-spec microwave. The island runs into an oak dining table for four people, with options for stunning lantern-style feature lights above.

THE GUEST BEDROOM

Your attractive guest bedroom is a larger than standard HAMPTON 2nd bedroom (11ft) that features a queen-size bed with ample storage beneath. It is positioned in the centre of the room, against a luxurious upholstered wall, in a choice of colours, complete with open shelving, set-in sockets and concealed downlights for a soft, soothing glow.

Opposite the bed, you'll find customised wardrobes with mirrored doors and a central desk with double power socket beneath.

THE BATHROOM

Like the kitchen, the spacious bathroom is finished to the same high-spec as you'd expect in a premium apartment. It easily accommodates not only a full-sized bath, but a separate shower and wash basin finished with chrome taps and rainfall shower head.
A wall-mounted heated towel rail, useful vanity/storage unit and stylish floor tiles complete the look.

THE MASTER BEDROOM

The luxurious 11ft master bedroom sits at the front of the boat and boasts a wonderful set of glazed French doors which lead out onto the bow deck. At the heart of the room, there's a generous king-size bed with soft back-lit lighting around the headboard, customised wardrobe and storage units with free area on starboard side with a chest of drawers.


THE BOW

The open bow is the perfect spot to watch the world go by.
There are options fixed, wrap-around seating with space for 2-3 people or a more flexible space which allows for self assembly chairs and/or cushions





LOCATION

D’Oyly Carte Island is a unique two-acre private island on the River Thames near Weybridge, Surrey and provides the perfect location to moor your boat for total tranquillity and enjoyment.

Access to this beautiful island is by its own private footbridge which links secure parking for 40 cars on the mainland. This unique combination provides a beautiful balance of convenience with seclusion.

The centrepiece on the island is Eyot House, a Grade II listed Victorian private property with 13 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms and a spectacular ball room.

The 1.9 acre island is steeped in history having been bought by Richard D’Oyly Carte, hence the name, in 1890. He was a former Gilbert and Sullivan opera producer and the hotelier behind The Savoy Hotel in London’s west end.

Within a 15-minute walk, you’ll find the buzzing High Street in Weybridge and a host of independent coffee shops, acclaimed restaurants, as well as a varied and comprehensive shopping offer.

With just 30 moorings provided around the whole Island, the site has a wonderful feeling of exclusivity compared to the larger capacity marinas in the vicinity. Our moorings are provided against a finger pontoon, with water and electricity next to each berth.

Opposite the moorings, the tree-lined towpath forms part of the Thames Path – a walking and cycling route stretching over 180 miles from the Cotswolds to the sea.

You are welcome to visit D’Oyly Carte Island to see the moorings, please contact us to arrange your viewing of the boat.
