Currently in opposition and - just - visible to the naked eye.

Uranus' visibility from the UK

The ice giant has become much more forgiving in the last few years, and at this opposition it lies just north of the celestial equator and gets over 40 degrees above the southern horizon at its best. Uranus is available for observation around 9pm BST and transits due south at 1am. It can be followed for most of the night until dipping below 20 degrees altitude at 5am.

I can see mine just fine in the reflection in the pool of water at the bottom of the Loo. (as you all call it) Don't need a telescope or binoc's for that.
