We’re pleased to announce the successful acquisition of Farndon Marina, a well-established site near Newark with over 300 berths. This brings our total to 11 marinas across the UK and marks our first location on the River Trent—a key step in expanding our waterways network.
Strategically positioned with navigable access through Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire, Farndon Marina marks a strategic step north in our expansion program and enhances Tingdene Marinas offering with high-quality on-site facilities including fuel, pump out, chandlery, boat servicing, a slipway, modern washrooms, secure parking and a popular on-site restaurant.
The marina has been family-run by the Ainsworth family for nearly 60 years, and we’re proud to continue its legacy within a group that shares those same values. As a family-owned business, Tingdene Group is committed to preserving the spirit of community, care and service that Farndon Marina is known for.
This acquisition is a strategic fit for the group, supporting our mission to provide a national network of marinas that deliver consistency, value and outstanding service to the boating community. It also extends benefits to Farndon berth holders, who will now enjoy access to our Privilege Scheme, cross-marina mooring advantages and exclusive customer offers.
Thank you to all involved in bringing this exciting opportunity to life—and please join us in welcoming Farndon Marina to the Tingdene family.
