Honeysuckle Rose

Step aboard Honeysuckle Rose, a beautifully crafted 60ft traditional stern narrowboat that blends timeless charm with modern comfort. Built by the reputable Stanton Marine and newly fitted out in 2024 by skilled boatbuilder Joan McLoughlin, this 4-berth vessel is ideal for both liveaboard living and leisurely cruising along the waterways. With thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship throughout, Honeysuckle Rose offers a welcoming home on the water.

As you enter from the traditional stern, you step into the engine room, which provides access for maintenance and storage. Moving forward, you’ll find the first sleeping berth, which features a spacious and permanent double bed—perfect for restful nights afloat. This cabin is designed with comfort in mind, offering a cosy retreat after a day of exploring.

The bathroom is a standout feature of the boat, decorated in elegant white tiling that gives it a fresh and airy feel. A beautiful round window with stained glass detailing adds a touch of character and charm. The bathroom includes a hatch for a cassette toilet and, unusually for a narrowboat, a full-sized bath—ideal for relaxing soaks while moored in peaceful surroundings.

Continuing through the boat, you enter the galley kitchen, which is both stylish and functional. It is fitted with sleek black cupboards and oak-effect worktops, creating a modern yet homely atmosphere. The kitchen is equipped with a four-burner hob and grill, as well as a fridge, providing everything you need to prepare meals on board with ease.

At the front of the boat, the saloon offers a comfortable and inviting living space. It features a solid fuel stove for warmth and ambiance, a soft grey sofa for lounging, and a step leading out to the bow—perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or watching the sunset over the canal. Whether you're entertaining guests or enjoying a quiet evening, this space is designed for relaxation.
