About this property
Cosy Canal Boat in Little Venice for Family & Friends
Why not experience a bit of UK boating culture whilst enjoying London's top landmarks - right in the city centre?
Your canal boat sleeps 4 adults in its super-king bed & double-bed sofa. The kitchen, bathroom & decks have everything you need - & ask us about early check-in & a 1-hour private tour right on your boat.
Located along the Grand Union waterway in central London we're only 20-30 mins to the city's most famous sites - so come enjoy a unique experience & lovely sleep on your canal boat!
The Space:
Our canal boat is ideal for a couple, family or group of friends visiting London to see the city's most famous landmarks.
The canal boat offers a bright open-plan kitchen and lounge, full bathroom, spacious double bedroom, and extra double bed to comfortably sleep 4 adults.
The boat's stern has an open-air deck allowing for early sunrise breakfasts or relaxing dinners under the stars - or lets guests have a relaxing cup of tea whilst watching towpath pedestrians or ducks feeding in the canal.
The boat moors on the Grand Union canal near Little Venice and the short route to her exact location along the easy-to-access towpath will be provided after booking.
And if the weather plays its part, we might be able to provide a 1 hour private tour via the bird sanctuary island, narrowboat village, Regent's Park, London Zoo into Camden market.
Full of historical character, the boat was recently carefully renovated to retain original period features including the oak wood, brass fixtures and ceramic tiling - notably in the kitchen and bathroom.
This canal boat was originally built in Sheffield but spent many of years of service in the branches of the Oxford canal before making its way down to central London.
The eco-centric canal boat runs on solar power with new energy efficient powerbanks are available for electricity and to charge all your phones, laptops and LED lights throughout the boat.
You may find staying on our canal boat a more interesting and unusual experience than your standard hotel or apartment - and our boat has what you need for a memorable break in central London.
