Welcome to the Cotswold Sailing Club

For over 50 years families have flourished sailing on our beautiful lake in the Cotswolds. We have a track record in producing dinghy sailors who regularly succeed at the regional and national levels, as well as supporting our youngest (and not so young) novice sailors to get on the water and join in the fun. We are a family-friendly, volunteer-led, sailing-focused club, with a strong racing fleet. If you align with our values and you are keen to participate in all our club offers, please consider applying for membership. We are different from most sailing clubs in the area because we own our lake, clubhouse and the grounds that surround it. This gives us considerable freedom in offering members a range of benefits, designed to further the sport of sailing.

About Us

The Cotswold Sailing Club is located at Lake 9 (Spinnaker Lake) in the Cotswold Water Park. The club owns the lake and land surrounding it, allowing us great freedom in the way we use it. Club members have access to the lake 24-7 365 days a year, giving time and space for cruising and novice sailors without the pressure of feeling in the way of racing on a Sunday.

The club facilities include a Cotswold stone clubhouse and a locked boat park with tie down points for each berth. The clubhouse has toilets, changing areas, hot showers (very useful during the Chiller series), kitchen and a dry area with table and chairs. At the front of the clubhouse is a patio area that overlooks the lake and a large grass area running down to the water, ideal for picnics during the summer. There is a manned galley on a Sunday (except winter time) serving hot and cold drinks.
