Whistlejacket Holiday Boat Description:

Whistlejacket is a 55-foot narrowboat, thoughtfully designed to stylishly accommodate up to five people for one, two, or more nights. It’s ideal for a couple with up to three children or two couples, offering two completely separate sleeping cabins—each with independent access to the galley and a bathroom featuring a freshwater flushing toilet and a hot/cold shower.

The aft cabin has a double bed that extends to a full 4'6" width. At the front, the bench seats can convert into either two single beds or a double bed as needed. Additionally, the longer single side allows for a further single bed, making it possible to sleep in three separate beds if required.

With central heating radiators throughout the boat and a wood- burning stove in the saloon, Whistlejacket can be used at any time of the year. The kitchen is fitted with oven, hob, fridge/ freezer, coffee machine, microwave, utensils and a foldaway table to sit around.

This boat has real oak floors, comfortable memory foam mattresses, and a flat screen TV/DVD player. The front has a set of doors/windows that open outwards allowing you to enjoy the full vista and outdoors.

Whistlejacket Short Break / Long Break Holiday Cruising Experience:

Whistlejacket 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. 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. 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.
