ABOUT
Upware Marina is ideally positioned in the Cambridgeshire Fens, for access to the unspoiled waterways of this unique landscape. The University city of Cambridge lies only twelve miles by road and around two and a half hours by river. The beautiful and historic riverside city of Ely, is even closer, being approximately one hour by river and only a few minutes by road. Yet another internationally famous town, Newmarket, known worldwide for it horse racing and breeding, is only twenty minutes drive away.
Upware Marina lies alongside protected wetland and wildlife areas, with Wicken Fen and its windmill within walking distance. The Fens is still an area where boating can be enjoyed in tranquility, but retaining water access to the Middle Levels with the Nene, and canal systems beyond. Upware village and marina is easily accessed by road, from the A10, with connection to the M11, A14 and A1.
