Introduction
'Bespoke Executive Solutions Ltd' are expanding their narrowboating portfolio and are now also operating confortable 'Skippered charters' utilising our tastefully converted, 1930's, working boat.
Taster days
Ever fancied trying your hand at the Helm of a full sized, effectivley laden, historic working boat? A fantastic gift or treat yourself!
Charter the vessel for a full or half day and we can also cater for your friends or Family (Up to nine) in our exterior saloon with refreshments available. This is our only day option which gives the client the opportunity to operate the boat, locks and swing bridges under the supervision of a Commercially qualified Skipper.
Skippered Charter Holidays
'So you like the idea of a holiday afloat but don't fancy doing all the work? Perhaps a 'Hotel' boat doesn't give you the exclusivie use of the boat or the 'hands on' aspect you were looking for?
Either way 'Hawkesbury' could be the solution...
BES offer 'Luxury Skippered Charters' Yes, you get a highly qualified Helmsman who manages the boat for you and is independant from the main cabin accomodation.
Short breaks and weekly charters are available around a multitude of cruising routes.
You get to steer if you wish and operate the locks and bridges, even gain a recognised qualification if you are up for it!
What you don't get are the stresses and strains of operating one of the largest, heaviest narrowboats on the entire system - leave that to the Skipper!
Accomodation includes;
- Master Cabin with large fixed double bed
- Quality bath / shower room
- Beautifully appointed interior saloon with solid fuel stove, sofa bed for guests etc
- Light, airy, spacious galley
- An enormous exterior saloon under the removable 'Cloths' in the bows
With the option of leaving the boat to visit castles, Stately Homes or other places of interest, then returning to the boat further along the route, you are not 'tied' to the boat for the duration of the holiday. A vehicle service can be arranged, ask for details.
We have transport available for bringing in supplies every couple of days as you are self catering, unlike a 'Hotel' boat, yet we tie up early evening within easy strolling distance of a canal side Pub if that appeals to you.
We aim to exceed your expectations aboard our historic, 1937, narrow boat 'Hawkesbury' so please feel free to contact us for more information
