If you fancy a staycation that offers something a little different, then you'll love this unique and romantic escape nestled among nature. Feel free to crank the BBQ at the water's edge and sit back and relax. The bow and roof also make for great dinning and relaxation areas out in the sunshine. If you’d rather be snuggled up inside then the Victorian wood burner turns Primrose into a cosy wee haven. There is a smart TV with a number of apps, such as Netflix, Amazon, I-players, YouTube, etc and board games to pass the time by, so pull out the sofa bed and get even more comfortable. Please note that this is a static stay. Due to the design of a narrowboat, Primrose is narrow at the stern and so, the berth is slightly smaller than a double, as it narrows on one end. But, there is also a standard double pull out sofa if guests feel a little too snug. The shower room is narrow at 53.5cm wide and 175cm high. Taller guests will have to bend a little whilst using the shower. Because the boat is snug it can only accommodate up to 2 adults. It cannot accomodate more than 2 adults comfortably.
Back in 2019, after living in Australia for 6 and a half years as a commercial photographer and chef, Emma & I wanted a new creative challenge. After staying in a tiny home out in Victoria, we found ourselves on a new adventure. We decided to return back to the UK in February 2020 where we could start this new journey. And then the pandemic hit. Not deterred, we looked for potential land and space where we could build tiny homes. But it wasn’t to be and so.... Basically we bought a 30ft narrow boat down in Norfolk at the end of June 2020 and popped her on the back of a lorry all the way up to bonnie Bo'ness, Scotland. We decided to revamp this amazing space inch by inch and a year later Primrose proudly sits on the beautiful Scottish Waterways for guests to enjoy.
A quiet country town surrounded by nature. The surrounding towns and villages have ample amenities to offer from cafes, bakeries, restaurants, shops, etc. But if you don't want to stray too far, then the local retail park is only a 10-minute walk from Primrose. There are a number of walking trails around to lead you off into the beautiful surroundings, whether it be by foot, cycle, car or kayak. Otherwise, some of Scotland's top national parks, historic monuments, golf courses, distilleries and restaurants are a short distance away. And the centre of Glasgow sits less than 7 miles away with regular bus services. The boat is 23 minutes by car from Glasgow Airport or 46 minutes from Edinburgh Airport. 17 minutes from Glasgow Central Station by car or 1 hour and 6 minutes from Edinburgh Waverley Station. Glasgow City Centre is less than 7 miles away and can be reached via bus. There are regular bus services that can take you into the heart of Scotland.
