Houseboats
HOUSEBOAT HOLIDAYS
This the perfect getaway for people who like to be very close to nature and don’t need to have televisons and the like on tap. Houseboats offer a wonderfully relaxing holiday and are particularly good for family holidays, groups of friends or small corporate groups.
Houseboats come in all sizes, with 4 sleepers being about the smallest. Services and facilities vary from houseboat to houseboat and it is very much a case of "getting what you pay for".
