Aquavista is to invest more than £1 million at its Nottingham Castle Waterside & Marina.
The investment is one of the largest upgrade programmes in the company’s history and will deliver substantial improvements to the marina’s facilities, pontoons, and overall customer experience.
“This investment represents an exciting new chapter for the marina,” said Paula Hewitt, marina manager at Nottingham Castle Waterside & Marina.
“Our goal is to create first-class facilities, enhance the visual appeal of the site, and elevate the waterside experience for all our customers.”
The investment programme is due to begin in January 2026 and will see the replacement of the marina’s pontoons with anti-slip GRP mesh Duradeck installed by Solent Marine.
Residential moorings
The site will also benefit from new utility bollards, new safety equipment, and a reconfiguration of the marina layout to provide 156 berths.
In addition, the marina’s facilities building will be refurbished to create five ensuite bathrooms.
A new dog-wash station will also be introduced – an increasingly popular feature across Aquavista’s network – alongside upgraded Wi-Fi, improved CCTV coverage, wet dock enhancements, and a number of aesthetic improvements to enhance the overall look and usability of the site.
Aquavista has also confirmed plans to launch residential moorings at Nottingham Castle Waterside & Marina from 1 April 2026.
The residential offering will include an official UK registered address, a personal lockable post box and storage box, free weekly laundry and free monthly pump-out.
