Where we are:
The Highlights...
- Boats are located in central London on Regent's Canal, in close proximity to excellent eating, drinking, shopping and entertainment options
- Fully equipped kitchen is ideal for self catering and enjoying the unique location
- Comfortably sleeps 4 adults and 1 child, making it ideal for a family trip, or a bit more spacious for a couple
You should know...
- Please note Barbara is not available to rent between November 2019 and April 2020.
- As both boats are moored by the water and are by nature, narrow boats, they would not be suitable for anybody uncomfortable with small space or water fears
- Restricted access on entry. Can be difficult with pram and no wheelchair access
- Children are welcome, but would need supervision getting off and on the boat.
The Detail...
If hotels or houses aren’t to your holidaying taste and you have a yearning to be close to the water without being on a cruise or yacht, then the choice of these two boutique barges will float your boat.
Moored in the heart of London, you’ll be seeing Britain’s capital through fresh eyes. A traditional barge holiday would see you lazily traversing locks, but there’s no effort involved here, apart from choosing Velvet Morning or Barbara to stay in.
Each barge has its own unique character with great attention to detail, to make sure you’re stay will be truly unique. They’re both designed with an antiques meets contemporary look with a touch of offbeat charm, to satisfy the unconventional traveller.
The décor is complemented and finished by a range of quality linens and toiletries, much like a hotel. Each barge offers modern technology and includes in their layout: One master standard double bed. One sofa bed. A fully fitted kitchen where you can whip up a romantic, waterside meal for two, gas hob and oven, and a log fired stove. The bathroom is equipped with a shower.
There’s no denying that because they’re narrow boats, they fall squarely into the bijou camp but with space at a premium it’s all about the luxury details to make up for it.
If you want to leave your little oasis of calm in London, you have all this fabulous city has to offer on your doorstep....
