About this property

Beautiful Narrowboat Glyndwr - Cruise the Fens and visit Cambridge, Ely & St Ives

Welcome to our comfy cosy narrowboat. Join us to take in the wonderful natural scenery on the rivers of Cambridgeshire and the truly unique beauty of the Fens, coupled with historic, vibrant Cambridge

She has full central heating, hot water, full size shower & flushing loo
Wood burner with fuel provided,
Beds can be made into 3 doubles or 2 doubles & 2 singles
Wake up next to the swans & ducks looking out upon the River Great Ouse... Stunning. 100% cotton linen & fluffy towels provided.
Before you set off on your narrowboat holiday, we will give you a full handover, explaining where everything is on the boat, how everything works and practical training covering boat handling, mooring, locks, reversing, turning and boat safety.
We will spend as much time with you as you need and only let you go off on your own when you feel you are ready. All our instructors have passed the RYA Helmsmans certificate.

If you would like even more help, we can accompany you on your cruise as your personal 'chauffer' and spend a whole day or more with you - contact Nicky to chat about what you need

Please note that mooring in Cambridge itself is restricted to a maximum of 4 nights

We also have another boat - New Moon which is is smaller than Glyndwr and ideal for couples. Click on my profile photo below to see all the listings I manage
Free secure parking is on site at the Lazy Otter
Perfect for the most amazing family holiday...

She is a 57ft long Cruiser Stern Narrowboat and spacious enough to accommodate the larger family in comfort an style

​As with New Moon, she comes fully equipped - all you need is food & drink plus a sense of adventure

​She has plenty of outside space, 2 separate cabins - 1 with a double bed and 1 with 2 singles that convert into a double (all with luxury award winning 'Emma' mattresses), full central heating and a wood burning stove which makes her super comfy and cosy.

​Moored at the Lazy Otter in Streatham, you are only a 2 hour cruise to Ely and 1 day to Cambridge or St Ives, the only problem is there is too much to choose from.

Whatever route you choose, will be beautiful and a holiday of a lifetime

She is equipped with everything a family will need for a wonderful holiday - all you have to do is stock up with food & drink and we take care of the rest:

Wood burning stove
