Blackbird Boat

A lovingly reimagined ‘boat-hole’ ideal for romantic retreats, Blackbird indulges the very best of the quiet life on the water. Peacefully positioned on a gorgeous 3-acre lake, the former canal narrowboat has been considerately designed with comfort at the heart of things. Allowing oodles of light, the modern Living Area’s kitchen is amply equipped for romantic dinners and slow brunches, while the woodburner will keep you cosy as the stars sparkle in the night sky.

And the bed. Oh, the bed. Imagine it as your new best friend. Tucked behind the sofa, the bed is a thing of beauty. Generously sized and crazy comfy, it’s made up with deluxe 400 thread count Egyptian cotton linen, plus feather duvets and four dreamy down surround pillows; for a sleep as pure and peaceful as the setting. With plenty of windows throughout plus skylights for stargazing (all with blackout blinds), you can make the most of the bed without missing a moment of the magic outside. A separate shower and on-board loo completes the boat. 

And when you wake, deeply rested, gently rocking, wildlife all around, your day’s rhythm is already rolling
