The Clubhouse

The Clubhouse

The two storey clubhouse has views over the Deben and Bawdsey, and out to sea. It features a large lounge, professional restaurant with dining area, meeting room and roof terrace. The club is available to hire for a range of events including birthdays, weddings and parties.

Our recently refurbished clubhouse has been transformed into a light, modern and welcoming space. The clubhouse, restaurant and bar feature new furniture and a soft, coastal-inspired colour palette, reflecting our unique riverside setting.

Comfortable new sofas create relaxed spaces to meet, socialise and unwind while enjoying the stunning views across the River Deben.

This transformation was made possible through a very generous donation from Philip Barnard, a lifelong member of Felixstowe Ferry Sailing Club. His generosity has helped create a beautiful and welcoming space for members and visitors to enjoy for years to come. To recognise his generosity a memorable plaque has been place in the restaurant as a lasting thank you.

The clubhouse is open several evenings a week and over the weekend. See the opening times and latest menu from the restaurant called Thyme and Tide.

Club members have 24-hour access to the clubhouse changing facilities such as showers, changing rooms and toilets using their membership card.

The RYA Training Centre operates from the Classroom known as “Riverside”. The centre is adjacent to the clubhouse and also has recently been refurbished to provide a modern, comfortable and welcoming environment for learning.

The refurbished centre now features a modern training classroom, kitchen facilities and lockers, providing everything our members and students need for their sailing courses and training.

This refurbishment was made possible thanks to the incredible generosity of our club members, who contributed both their time, skills and financial support to bring the project to life.

As a lasting thank you, a commemorative plaque has been placed on the building, recognising the members whose generosity and hard work helped make this transformation possible.

We are incredibly proud of what has been achieved and grateful to everyone who played a part in creating this fantastic facility for the future of the club.
