Queen Of Hearts

Holiday Boat

For a memorable stay, for a hen weekend, large party or family stay then the " QUEEN OF HEARTS " will allow you and your guests, friends , hens to stay all together on the same boat. This is one of the few boats on the canal that offers you exclusive 12 person accommodation.

This boat is ideal for Hen , Stag & celebratory parties looking for a base near the heart of the city. We will welcome you onboard Friday afternoon and show you the boat.

The Queen of Hearts is very popular with hirers who would like to spend a longer day on the canal, ideal for a weekend, a couple of days, short break or a week.

The Queen of Hearts is our only boat that is designed to stylishly sleep 12 people for two or three nights or more in total luxury. It is very popular with hirers who would like to spend a longer day on the canal, ideal for a weekend or just a couple of days. It sleeps twelve with a mixture of single, double and bunk beds.

On arrival you will find a fitted out painted wood interior, two bathrooms with toilet, with a hot/cold shower, a high gloss black contemporary kitchen with oven, hob, two fridges/ freezer, coffee machine, utensils and a double dinette to seat two lots of six. This table converts into a double bed when required allowing you to choose between two single beds or a double bed. There are two 19 " televisions / DVD for further entertainment.The front has a set of doors/windows that open outwards allowing you to enjoy the full vista and outdoors.

At the rear there is a double bed and a television / dvd to provide any entertainment should you get bored of the outdoors. The boat is fitted with central heating for cooler days and hot / cold running water. The rear of the boat has a cruiser stern which is larger than more traditional boats allowing more open space. Access on and off the boat is easier and there is space for crew members as well as the steerer.

There is a fridge, four ring hob and microwave so if you fancy cooking there are utensils & crockery (plates, bowls, mugs and glasses). Don’t worry about steering, it's easy; you will be given full instruction and handling tuition on arrival. The boat hire includes diesel, gas and water. If you are cruising overnight, there are towels, sheets, duvets & pillows provided to compliment your comfort.

Our start time for holiday cruises start between 2.00 - 4.00p.m. to allow time for arrival & instruction. ( Other times can be made later by prior arrangement )

If you require more accommodation for a larger party , then subject to availibility, we can add a further boat with more available beds such as 2 or 4 etc.

Many guests have different criteria for their experience with us and for that reason we have a selection of other boats for you to consider. Please note a pre-authorisation deposit is required using a valid debit / credit card.
