Premier Cru

Holiday Boat

Premier Cru is our 55ft wide-beam boat. She's much more spacious than a narrowboat. She has six berths, with one double cabin,, a second bedroom with two single beds and a very comfortable sofa bed in the lounge On entering the boat from the stern, you'll find the galley, complete with fullsize cooker, fridge with top shelf freezer . The open galley has an L shaped work top with cottage style cupboards.

The lounge has a solid fuel stove, fold out sofa bed, television and portable bluetooth speaker. Along the corridor you'll find the two bedrooms, both with luxury bedding, towels, toiletries and some storage in both rooms. The bathroom has a shower and flushing toilet. So your comfort is complete.

To get you started: We'd like to take the worry out of your holiday; from the moment your feet hit the deck, you can begin to enjoy your holiday on the Kennet and Avon canal. Premier Cru will be full of complimentary fuel so after your orienteering, you'll be ready to steer her away. You'll be insured, licensed and ready to go. We'll make up a hamper including tea, coffee, biscuits, milk, bread, butter, eggs and cheese and still water, so you can stop for a snack or toast the boat even if you haven't had the chance to shop yet. If you're a novice, don't worry we spend time with you to make sure you are happy handling the boat before you go on your way.

For your comfort: Your holiday can be luxurious from start to finish. The two cabins have comfortable mattresses with cotton toppers and cotton sheets plus duvets and pillows to make sure that you have a snuggly sleep. The sofa bed also comes with cotton sheets, pillows and duvet. Towels are big, plump, soft cotton sheets, that you can wrap yourself up in after a leisurely shower.

For your entertainment: Onboard you'll find a large freeview tv for you to watch on demand and a potable bluetooth speaker. Unlimited mobile Wi-fi means you can keep in touch and link into your Netflix account. And if you'd rather play there's a selection of board games for all of the family to enjoy.

Not so essential essentials: We recommend waterproof jackets and trousers which will keep you dry in all weathers. After a day's cruising you can wind down in front of the log burner, create an ambient atmosphere and enjoy a relaxed evening.

And just because we can: We've provided fleecy robes for you to wrap up in. A selection of toiletries include soap, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion..

Just ask: We'd like you to want for nothing during your stay, so if you have any special requirements just let us know and if there's something we can do to make it happen we will. For your reassurance, we provide a discreet concierge call out service. We're happy to work with you to create a special event or occasion and it would be a privilege to do so.
