Houseboats · New on the canal

Stay on
the water.

Wake up somewhere a little different. Our first houseboat is moored on the canal at The Customs House, a few steps from the towpath, with more to come.

A different pace

The canal, from the water side.

A collection of bespoke houseboats, made for people who want to slow down. Thoughtful inside, quiet outside, and a stay you won't find anywhere else on this stretch of water.

Coffee on the deck. Boats coming and going along the canal. The towpath at the door, and the Kilpatricks across the water changing colour all day. There is nothing to be late for.

On deck

Somewhere to sit with a coffee and watch the basin work, morning and evening.

At the door

The towpath runs past the mooring. Turn left for the river, right for Glasgow.

Off the clock

No reception, no schedule. Come and go by the key code we send you.

Aboard

Everything you need, and nothing you don't.

A double bedroom, a contemporary shower room, a lounge to settle into and a kitchenette with everything for breakfast and a proper meal. Outside, a private deck on the water to sit out on. Two nights away or something worth celebrating, it works for both.

Houseboats

A night on the water.

Wake with the water under you, the hills across the way, and the towpath at the door. It is a different kind of stay.
