DESCRIPTION:

EXCLUSIVE USE, and available all year, this is a perfectly appointed self-catering 4-berth/2 cabin American sports cruiser. Located right next door to Thorpe Park in Chertsey, between Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace.

A beautifully made and very sexy looking boat which is perfect for a romantic stay or small families (2 adults and 2 children) due to limited headroom in the sleeping compartments and minimal cupboard/storage space. Although the inside living area is open-plan, twith heating, the cabins/bedrooms can be sectioned off for visual privacy and there is a separate wet room/shower providing hot water, toiletries and toilet/head facilities. There is also an in and outdoor seating/dining area plus sun deck on the bow/front. Furthermore, there is a separate pontoon moored to the rear of the boat housing a hot tub which is also exclusive use, available all year and included in the price.

Facilities include heating throughout, a fully equipped galley/kitchenette (2-plate hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster, kettle, crockery, cutlery, silverware, glassware, pots, pans, cooking utensils and basic kitchen ingredients), Smart TV, Netflix, WiFi, Alexa, books, board games, tea/coffee plus bedding with freshly laundered linen and towels are also provided.

Water sports and bikes are included. Self-drives boats and skippered cruises can also be arranged.

Super Cruiser Stay is based in a wonderfully peaceful and secure marina in Chertsey, a very quaint English town on the banks of the upper Thames - half way between Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace. There are plenty of places of interest to visit in the local area including historic monuments, market towns, museums, racecourses, theme parks and nature trails.

This is, quite simply, the perfect base to kick back and relax after an action-packed adventure! Or, just stay on board and spend your time reading, playing board games and enjoying the peace and tranquillity of watching river life go by. Also a rare find for those keen on fishing as this sport is permitted here all year around from the boat you are staying on - with your own equipment!

Experienced anglers can receive discounts on full day self-drive boat hire - and there are smaller cabin self-catering cruisers available for overnight fishing stays.

Direct trains to Waterloo take approximately 35 minutes should guests wish to sample the many tourist attractions in Central London too. Heathrow is only 7 miles away.

UNIQUE EXPERIENCE:

Please be forewarned, being on a boat is a very unique experience and many things are different to being a land lubber staying in standard accommodation (or a hotel for that matter) in terms of staffing, power and water supply, pumping out after showers and toilet flush systems, etc. Everything will be explained prior to arrival and is also contained within the on-board 'HELP FOLDER'.

Whilst some older reviews mention the location being near Hampton Court, this was the previous location before the company moved to Chertsey in June 2020.
