About Komet Canal Boats
Safely moored in the Shropshire Union Canal-adjacent Aqueduct Marina and Caravan Park, this adults-only narrowboat offers all the romance of a barging holiday without the stress of steering. Tucked away in peaceful farmland yet easily reached via the B5074, it's an ideal hideaway for couples seeking quality time together – and dogs are welcome too, with lovely walks straight from the marina.
The on-site Waterfront Café serves breakfast through to late afternoon, while Nantwich's shops and restaurants are fifteen minutes' drive. A country pub sits five minutes away, and the surrounding landscape delivers proper Cheshire calm: waterside strolls, abundant wildlife, and that satisfying sense of remoteness without true isolation. The marina itself provides all the essentials – hot showers, laundry, and even electric car charging – though the boat's compact quarters mean space can feel snug if you're used to sprawling glamping pods.

What visitors say
I recently stayed aboard Komet and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. The boat is beautifully presented, spotlessly clean, and has everything you need for a relaxing break. The standout feature for me was the bed. It was incredibly comfortable and provided one of the best nights' sleep I've had away from home in a long time. The bedding was soft, fresh, and felt more like a quality hotel than a holiday rental. The boat itself is cosy, warm, and full of character. Sitting by the fire in the evening and watching the marina settle down for the night was wonderfully peaceful. Despite being on a boat, it felt surprisingly spacious and very well thought out. The location at the marina is excellent, with lovely walks nearby and a calm atmosphere throughout. Communication was clear and check-in was straightforward. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again and would highly recommend Komet to anyone looking for a unique and comfortable getaway. The comfortable bed alone is worth coming back for!

Stayed on the Komet 3-5th August. Although we have been on a narrow boat before we have never stayed on one. Its like a floating appartment so well laid out decorated and lovely touches throughout doce gusto coffee machine dvd player loads of films books games and a luxury touch of a mini bar too. Well equiped with a very good air fryer/grill fridge and toaster microwave kettle everything you could possibly need if you would like to do self catering Swans and cygnets gliding past as you have your morning coffee ducks and ducklings and watching the heron catch fish. Everyone is friendly and polite. There is also a shower block on site and a nice cafe/bisto David and Nichola are amazing hosts. Hes always available on the phone to answer any questions you have. ....Just GO you will love it and you are supporting a family business too Review score 10 out of 5
