Looking for the ultimate way to picnic during Henley Regatta? Our Riverside Park & Picnic spots at Remenham Farm offer an unbeatable view of the racing, along with everything you need for a relaxed, social day by the river. Whether you’re attending with friends, family, or clients, this is your chance to be at the heart of the action with comfort, space, and style.

Located directly along the Henley Royal Regatta course, Remenham Farm provides easy access to the riverbank, with plenty of space to spread out and enjoy your day. Choose from a variety of pitch options—including Premium, First Row, Second Row, and Third Row—to suit your group size and budget.

Each booking includes:

• A reserved pitch with a picnic bench, a parasol and great views of the rowing
• A parking spot right next to your picnic spot
