The Cremyll Ferry is still currently operating from RWY Royal William Yard to Mount Edgcumbe House and Country Park (Official).

Please accept our apologies for any disruption or inconvenience during this time. We will keep you updated with any developments regarding the slipway at Admirals Hard ⛴️💙

The Cremyll Ferry will be operating into and out of the Royal William Yard, instead of its usual stop at Admiral's Hard, until further notice.

Overnight on Saturday, part of the Admiral's Hard slipway fell away. As a result of the damage, it is not possible to manoeuvre the ferry in, nor is it safe for pedestrians to wait.

We are assessing the damage and looking at the alternatives to find a solution as quickly as we can.

“We are delighted to resume regular operations from the Cremyll slipway. The safety and convenience of our passengers are our top priorities, and we’re grateful for the swift and effective repairs carried out by Plymouth City Council, in time for the return of our increased seasonal timetable from 1 April.

We look forward to welcoming everyone on board."

Smooth sailing ahead as Mount Edgcumbe Slipway reopens.

The Mount Edgcumbe slipway has officially reopened following extensive repairs, ensuring safe and reliable access for Cremyll Ferry passengers.

The repair works, which began in late October, have been successfully completed, and the slipway is now fully operational.

During a routine review, Plymouth City Council surveyors identified significant cracks and deterioration beneath the slipway, exacerbated by recent storms. The main concrete walkway had come loose and collapsed in places, necessitating urgent repairs. The Council swiftly closed the slipway and commenced works.

The comprehensive repair project included:

+ Removing and replacing loose stonework.
+ Reinforcing the propping of the concrete slab.
+ Filling in voids and gaps.
+ Installing Odex pile casings filled with reinforced concrete to stabilize the northwest side.
+ Constructing new reinforced concrete outer walls and levelling the deck slab.

In addition to repairing the slipway, the Council is also making repairs to the general area with left over materials. Contractors are fixing a large hole between the slip and the ticket office and filling in holes in the wall outside the slipway.

The maintenance work has significantly enhanced the slipway's durability, extending its useful life to 25 years and beyond.

Councillor Chris Penberthy, Plymouth City Council Cabinet Member with responsibility for Facilities Management, said: “We are thrilled to announce the reopening of the Mount Edgcumbe slipway! It supports not only the ferry service but also the economic vitality of the area by facilitating tourism and local business.

“The repairs have not only restored the slipway but have also improved its resilience for the future, showcasing our commitment to maintaining vital infrastructure for the community. I want to extend my thanks to the ferry operator and the public for their patience and support during this time."

Cornwall Councillor Kate Ewert, Joint chair of the Mount Edgcumbe Joint Committee, said " The reopening of the slipway is fantastic news for the community and visitors. The slipway is a crucial access point to a beloved destination for both locals and tourists. Mount Edgcumbe and the brilliant businesses we have in the park, have had a really tough time over the past few months, so we are thrilled to see the ferry service back at the slipway and would use it as a reminder to everyone that Mount Edgcumbe is very much open for businesses."

Ben Squire, owner of Plymouth Boat Trips, which operates the Cremyll Ferry, added: "We are delighted to resume regular operations from the Cremyll slipway. “The safety and convenience of our passengers are our top priorities, and we’re grateful for the swift and effective repairs carried out by Plymouth City Council, in time for the return of our increased seasonal timetable from 1 April. We look forward to welcoming everyone on board."
