Its very easy to find :)

From J25:

Take the Long Eaton exit (the one before M1 Southbound), follow to a mini round-about then turn right, follow until a larger round-about and go straight on. Follow the road for about a mile straight over 2 mini round-abouts until you get to the trainstation on the right. Round the island under the train bridge and follow the road for about 2 miles until you see the pub. There are a couple of 30MPH cameras on that road. When you see the marina its just past it on the left.


From J24:

Take the exit for the A50 and follow it until for about 1.5 miles until you see a sign for Castle Donington. Onto the slip road upto the big round-about. Go all the way around until you see a sign for Sawley or Long Eaton (5th exit) then follow the road for about a mile until you see the pub on the right.
