Humblots Heron

A 58ft 2009 Alvechurch Boat Centres 5 berth semi traditional stern narrowboat. Available mid-end October 2026.

  • £54,950
  • 5 Berth

Meet Humblots Heron. At 58ft, this boat is ideally sized to cruise the entire network of the English canals and has spent her life so far carrying happy holidaymakers along the Llangollen Canal.

Entering from the semi-traditional stern, there are 2 bedroom cabins with a bathroom between them for easy access from both. The first cabin has flexible bed bases and can be configured as either a double bed or 2 singles. The second bedroom is a fixed double berth, and both bedrooms have wardrobe space next to the beds.

The bathroom comes equipped with pump-out toilet, washbasin with storage space below, and a hip-bath with shower overhead.

The next cabin is a fixed double bedroom. This also has a storage cupboard. There is also a beautifully ornate side hatch for extra ventilation.

Moving through the boat you come to a fully equipped galley with 4 burner gas cooker complete with grill and oven, refrigerator, sink and drainer, work surfaces and storage space. This cabin has been recently refurbished with new vinyl flooring, worktops, tiles and Thetford hob.

Finally the dinette area at the bow has the flexibility of converting to an extra single bed, ideal for entertaining guests.

The virtual tour is of a typical ABC Heron Class Boat.

Viewings will be arranged around hire periods and turnaround times. To arrange a viewing or make an enquiry, please contact Wrenbury Mill Marina on 01270 780544.
