Last minute boating holidays   

For a holiday with a difference, cruise the canals and rivers of England and Wales in comfort and appreciate the countryside as it should be seen, by narrowboat or barge.

Hotel boat holidays offer the beauty of ever changing landscapes, good food, the company of interesting, friendly people and are ideal for those travelling alone, for couples or for friends.
All of the boats are operated by small independent companies as family concerns and are members of the trade association for inland waterway businesses to ensure the highest standards of operation.

Our Hotel boats operate over almost the whole of the waterway system, offering one week holidays or short breaks.   You can book single, twin or double cabins, some with en-suite facilities.  An expert crew takes care of the boats, the cooking and of you.

The holidays offer tremendous value for money and are fully inclusive of all meals.  From early morning tea to a four course dinner, you will be catered for in the best tradition. Each day's cruise offers something different to see, with expert guidance from the skipper, and excursions may be provided to places of interest on or near the canal - you will see parts of Britain very few others know.  Feel free to explore as the crew work the boats - although you will be more than welcome to assist if you so wish.   You will find the welcoming atmosphere on board very relaxing - it's a perfect stress free break in a unique environment.

If the romance and peace of the waterways appeals to you, but you would appreciate the services of an experienced guide, caterer and crew, then a Hotel Boat is for you.  

Hotel Boats cruise the inland waterways providing good service as they go.   For the young and not so young whether travelling alone, as a couple, or with friends, hotel boats offer a waterway holiday where you can do as much or as little as you like.
