About this property
BrightOwl Narrowboat, Waterside Cottage experience
You won’t forget your time in this one of a kind place. Bright Owl is a 63 ft Narrowboat that has a clean cottage vibe with hotel amenities. We use Bright owl to live on for three months out of the year, so everything is thought about from the large TV and surround sound to the very fast Sat. Wifi. A large boat fridge and perfect sized kitchen is there to prepare meals and and great coffee or tea. Radiators or a wood burning stove will keep you warm as well as a wonderful bedding.

Flush each time you wipe.
If the light comes on next to the toilet. Do not use the toilet and let use know about it. There are other toilets located in the marina that you can use with the provided RDF card.
Turn on the shower pump before taking a shower.
Turn off the shower pump when you are done taking your shower. Turn on the hot water boost for 1 hour minutes and you should have hot water for the day.
