Cleeve Lock to Benson Lock, around Wallingford. It's where we're starting.

You're three hours downriver.
Where are you actually allowed to stop tonight?

Nobody has the whole map

Prices, limits and times are scattered across the Environment Agency, marinas, pubs and private owners. You need six tabs and a good guess.

Paying is a puzzle

Decoding a council website from the towpath, mid-cruise, with one bar of signal and a boat drifting behind you. Lovely.

Zero certainty

Free spots are first come, first served. You cruise for hours, hope there's room, and find a hire boat parked across the lot.

Take it for a spin

How far can you get today?

Set off from Cleeve Lock at 11:30 and drag the slider. Distances are measured along the river, not as the crow flies — that's the bit that matters when you're steering.

12:15

You're 3.0 miles up the river.

Three kinds of spot

Honestly labelled. No small print.

Every mooring on the map tells you straight what you're getting. If we haven't confirmed it yet, we say so — you'll see a grey "Mooring unconfirmed" badge instead of a guess.

Free

First come, first served. Environment Agency spots and free venue moorings. Nothing to pay, and no promises — arrive early.

On the map now

Hold

A pub or restaurant keeps a spot for you. You put down a small deposit, and you get it back when you arrive. Nobody walks up and takes it.

Paid

Marinas and private landowners. Pay per night in the app — no phone calls, no cash in an envelope, no wondering.

What's in the app today

Less guessing. More kettle.

Map and list, your call

Prefer a map? Got it. Prefer a list you can filter by Eat, Sleep and Gates? Also got it. Same data, whichever way your brain works.

Lock times that are real

Keeper hours, the lunchtime gap, the winter cut-backs and what facilities each lock has — so you're not racing a closing gate.

Distance by water

"Two miles away" means nothing on a river with bends. We measure along the water, in miles and hours.

Free to browse, no login

Open it and look. You only need an account when there's something to keep, like your bookings.

Got moorings?

Pub, restaurant, marina or riverside land? You're probably already on the map.

Go on. Have a look at the river.

It's free, it needs no account, and it takes about ten seconds to see if there's somewhere to tie up tonight.
