All I can say is... what a gem this is! We met up with our friends to go rock climbing in Lincoln woods and stumbled upon this amazing little canal boat pretty much right next door. Simon was a wonderful host and made sure we knew all the quirks of living on a boat for a few days. Theres a lot of little tricks to learn but Simon made sure we knew he was available anytime if we had questions. There is a shower, hot water, toilet, and a little gas stove for cooking. Water is limited on a boat though so using it sparingly is encouraged. We picked up a few gallons of water for drinking, tooth brushing, and that sort of thing. Saved the water for short showers and dish washing. We fit 4 people in the canal boat easily and both the double and single beds were very comfortable. The boat itself is beautiful and obviously very loved. Getting to take the boat out on the river with Simon was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Seriously just book it, you'll never forget it. We'll definitely be back for another stay on the boat!
