Bath vs Leinster - Canal Boat accommodation

Post by graemebarry »

If anyone is looking to make a weekend of it for the Heineken Cup game at Bath (11th Dec, ko 12.45pm) you might like to consider staying on our widebeam canal boat. You can moor the boat right outside the stadium. We're doing a 3 or 4 night break from Friday to Monday/Tuesday, with timings to suit your flights or other travel plans. Bath's Christmas Market is on that weekend too. Approx £475 for the boat, which sleeps 6.

We have a woodburner on the boat and central heating is being installed in time for the autumn so it should be warm.

If you want to keep warm take the boat for a quick up and down trip of the Caen Hill Locks in Devizes. That will make you sweat!

Great idea, not for me though - I'm on a day trip
