Ipswich Marina viewed from the other side
of the water from the Steamboat
The Steamboat is located on a man-made,
but tidal, cut of the river in an area which, together with the
wet dock, is gradually being renovated and renewed.
Steamboat Tavern
As it’s a pub venue there are no
accommodation facilities at the venue itself, but there are
plenty of B&Bs, if you’re coming from outside town.
There’s also a campsite about a ten
minutes’ drive away: Orwell Meadows Leisure Park, which
caters for caravans and motorhomes as well as tents. You can
contact them on 01473 726666 or e-mail recpt@orwellmeadows.co.uk (just remove the BONUS AMPHIBIAN from the
e-mail address before sending!).
The Ipswich
Tourist Information website
has details of places to stay, maps, useful links and lots of
information about Ipswich and the surrounding area.
The number 15 bus from the town centre
stops within easy walking distance of the pub, and there are
taxi ranks in the town centre and at the rail station.
There is a good range of food available
at the pub during most of the festival, and of course at other
times as well.
