Lovely stay

The staff were so friendly and the venue was great with an idyllic location on the canal. The rooms are so lovely and cosy with the main pub building just across the car park. We stayed for Silverstone, which is 20 minutes in a taxi.

Handy transport links

Pleasant enough pub with accommodation cabins at the back of the car park, it was quiet when I stayed but I can imagine that being so closed to the A5 & right next to the canal the good sized carpark could get very busy. Very limited food menu, but all cooked fresh - so all good !

The room was ok to stay for one night. The front door didn’t close properly, corner of door was slightly ajar, but it wasn’t cold outside so it was fine. Bed was fine. Small tv and tea and coffee facilities in room. Countryside around which was nice. Didn’t eat there as was going to party at the dodmoor house up the road, but get ready to be ripped off by the only taxi firm in the area, £15 for a 2 min taxi ride. Crazy. But that’s no fault of the narrowboat ofcourse.

Two night business trip.

On the whole the stay was just what I had expected and perfect for a couple of nights for a business trip. The only disappointment was lack of food for the second night. I had been given a sheet with Food Service Times when checking in. On my second night I was later going for dinner, having been at clients all day. When I went for dinner at 8:40pm I was told they stopped doing food at 8:30pm. There was no offer to make a sandwich or anything simple. I thought the time for food service had been up to 9:00pm. Having had to settle for a drink and bar snacks I returned to my about 9:20pm. When checking the sheet I had been given the previous day, it said food service was until 9:00pm. I went back and questioned this, and was told sorry it normally is but this week we have a chef off so it's 8:30pm. It begs the question, why give me a sheet with times on that are incorrect! Aside from that it was an acceptable stay.

We arrived at 17:45 on the Sunday, to find that the kitchen closed at 18:00. We had just walked 14 miles as part of our Grand Union Canal walk for Yorkshire Cancer Research. The staff were very accommodating and we were well fed! The shock was when we received the receipt for the meals and a few beers and a 10% service charge had been added. We were not asked whether we wanted to pay that. Given the circumstances, we would probably have agreed to it, but it would have been nice to be asked.

Good priced accommodation.

The Narrowboat hotel pub was average but served its purpose which was to provide affordable accommodation near to a venue where we were attending a wedding. The rooms were basic, would have benefited from being ‘aired’ as they smelt musty. Our front door looked like someone had tried to force it open but it was secure- all just a little tired! The breakfast we had in the pub was lovely and the staff were welcoming and friendly. Accommodation was fairly priced for the facilities offered and the food was good value. The location being next to the canal was lovely.

Great little place to stay with really welcoming and friendly staff. We had a beautiful clean and cosy warm room with all the options as described in our booking. We dined in the restaurant and the food was tasty and well prepared. We would definitely stay here again. Easy walk to some local trails and town was an easy walk or drive down the road. Thank you

No breakfast, not good for winter

Rooms are separate from the pub. Single glased windows and only a small electric heater, would be nice in summer but cold it the winter. Shower had a 5 minute delay before it started. No breakfast but this was not stated when booking

Very enjoyable stay

Short business trip on my own so just needed a cheap place for a couple of nights. Was very pleased I booked the Narrow Boat though as it was first class and not at all expensive so definitely very good value for money. The room was one of 8 in 2 purpose build accommodation buildings at the end of the car park. Good size room with a bathroom with a spacious and effective shower. Good comfortable double bed plus usual Tea, coffee, kettle, TV, bottled water and some biscuits. There was a good sized table ideal for working at (a definite plus on a business trip), good wifi and free parking directly outside the room. All very good. Had dinner in the restaurant both nights. Interesting menu with choice of tempting courses and the food was excellent. Had a glass of wine with dinner and it was quality stuff. Amused that the bar is very dog friendly - even had a stand with a choice of dog biscuits, a water bowl and dog towels, probably essential when you are next to a canal. Nice friendly bar staff and my room was serviced and re-stocked which does not always happen these days. Hope I get some more work in the area as I would not mind going back there.
