The club is situated five minutes from the town centre of Sudbury on the Suffolk side of the River Stour, in the middle of scenic Constable country. Rowing and sculling takes place on a 1500m stretch of water between a weir at one end of the river and a low bridge with shallow water at the other. The club is active the whole year round, training through the winter for the Men's, Women's and Veteran's eights heads in March and April while for the rest of the year the club concentrates on fours, pairs, doubles and sculls.

Crews row and scull most days of the week, with special sessions on Saturday & Sunday at 10:00 - and Thursday at 19:00 during the summer - for anyone who wants to 'just turn up'.
