Our Fleet

We operate from Devizes Wharf on the beautiful Kennet & Avon Canal.

On a one week hire it is possible to get to Newbury and back going east, or to Bath top lock going west via Caen Hill's flight of 29 locks.

There is a good selection of pubs along the canal and Devizes with it's interesting architecture has an excellent shopping centre, a museum with exhibits on Stonehenge, a canal museum and Wadworth's famous brewery with dray horses.

A limited number of life jackets are available for hire on prior request.

We have three boats for hire for weekend, short break or weekly hire.

40' Canal Boat (Moonraker) ~ 2 Double berths

Visit Moonraker

45' CANAL BOAT (Dabchick) ~2 Double berths and 2 single berths Visit Dabchick

52' CANAL BOAT (Moonfleet) ~ 2 Double berths and 2 single berths Visit Moonfleet

All our boats have central heating, cooker, fridge, toilet, shower, radio/CD player, hairdryer and 12 volt socket (negative earth). Crockery, cutlery, pots and pans are provided but bedding apart from pillows is not.

PARKING. On arrival at the Wharf you may need to purchase a parking ticket as the whole wharf area is now ‘Pay & Display’ (8.00 am – 6.00 pm) but after loading your belongings onto the boat we will escort you to a private parking area nearby. Please note: maximum number of cars per boat is 2.

NO PETS!
Please do not bring pets, we cannot let you sail if you do so.

N.B. We reserve the right to refuse single sex groups.

For details of stoppages phone British Waterways Gloucester office on 01432 318000. If the canal should be closed at short notice we reserve the right to move the boats to a temporary base without prior warning.

We plan to add a brand new 56' narrowboat named Moonshine to our fleet for the 2009 season!
