53ft Floating 2 Bed Flat / Studio (Narrowboat)

Looking for a change of pace and a bit of adventure? Why not try life on the water! Living on a narrowboat isn’t just about saving money—it’s about embracing a unique, peaceful lifestyle. If you love the idea of waking up to gentle ripples and ever-changing scenery, this could be perfect for you.

Our lovely 53ft narrowboat is spacious, well-maintained, and super easy to handle—ideal for solo explorers or a cosy couple. There’s a comfortable double bed, and the dinette converts into a bed for an additional two people. While storage is snug (as with all boats), it’s a great fit if you travel light and like to keep things tidy. Off-grid living is a breeze with solar power, and you’ll stay toasty in winter thanks to diesel radiators and a classic stove.

Never handled a boat before? No worries! We’ll provide full training on everything from steering to safety and light maintenance, so you’ll be cruising the canals with confidence in no time.

She is currently moored in Berkhamsted; however, you can set off north towards Tring or Aylesbury or south towards the Grand Union for charming villages like Berkhamsted, Kings Langley, and Rickmansworth or along the Paddington Arm to discover Little Venice, Regent’s Park, Camden Lock, Limehouse, and Hackney Wick. With excellent transport links nearby, commuting is doable, especially if you’ve got an e-scooter or bike. Perfect for home workers, you’ll love the unlimited internet and peaceful surroundings.

Rent covers all boat licences and servicing, 24/7 breakdown cover, unlimited internet, and a truly special way of life. The standard term is one year, but we can chat if you need something shorter. You will need a one-month deposit, an ID, and a reference.

Interested? Please drop me a message with a bit about yourself, including your boating experience (if any), and your contact details. Let’s see if this floating home is right for you!
