Welcome to the Royal London Yacht Club
The Club is one of the most historic and prestigious yacht clubs in Great Britain. It is situated on The Parade, Cowes, Isle of Wight and occupies a unique waterfront position overlooking The Solent. From the iconic first floor balcony there are arguably the best views of the yachting that takes place off Cowes.
The Club was built in about 1850 in the Regency Style with a range of elegant reception rooms including a first floor Drawing Room and on the ground floor the Dining Room and Arundel Room. The London Room, which opens out onto a sheltered south facing private garden, is more flexible and can accommodate a marquee on either the Quarter Deck or across the entire garden. There are ten bedrooms many of which have private balconies overlooking the Solent.
The Royal London Yacht Club is a private members club which enjoys hosting yachting and social events not only for its own members but national and international regattas and visiting yachtsmen from across the world. Its catering has been highly acclaimed, and the Club sets the highest possible standards.
