What Our Guests Say
This was our second time on Chalkhill Blue taking the opportunity for a really different winter break in the UK. Just a gorgeous little narrowboat for couples, so well equipped and comfortable; it feels like a cute cottage but with all the fun of being on the water.
Just returned from a weekend away with Boutique Narrowboats. The experience was second to none, staff were hugely helpful, special thanks to Colin who put us at ease when we first took the boat. Would I recommend? Absolutely, and we will definitely be back for more
