ABOUT US
“My dream was to run my own restaurant and after giving up teaching full time to pursue my dreams, with my husband Alex, we discovered this beautiful building at Woodbridge”.
Emma Cole, Owner
The Boathouse sits on the old site of Whisstocks Boatyard which dates back to 1926 and was in operation until the 1990s, building dinghies, fishing boats, lifeboats and private yachts over the decades.
Our interior draws inspiration from the magnificent nautical history of the site - with our styling and branding designed to be both in keeping with and to celebrate the history of the
area.
Combining the traditional with the contemporary, our interior has an industrial, rustic feel that references the sites nautical past, with upcycled vintage furniture sitting alongside new
contemporary pieces.
We cater for many additional functions including
- Work events
- Wedding breakfast
- Wedding receptions
- Celebrations
- Wakes
- Club events
- Christmas party nights
If you would like to give some constructive criticism to help us improve and move forward we would like to hear from you via email - this is a much better approach to help small businesses like ours than bad social media exposure.
We would like to thank everyone that has supported us over the past few years, it means so much to see a friendly face in a fast-paced world!
