Welcome aboard Komet! We're delighted to share this unique floating retreat with our guests. What we enjoy most about hosting is helping people slow down, switch off from the pressures of everyday life, and create lasting memories in a truly unusual setting. Komet is a lovingly restored canal boat, and we've put a great deal of care into making her comfortable, welcoming, and full of character. We love boating, travel, local history, good food, and spending time on the waterways, and we've tried to bring a little of those passions into every detail of your stay. Whether you're looking for a peaceful escape, a romantic break, a base to explore Cheshire, or simply somewhere different to unwind, we hope you'll feel right at home from the moment you step aboard. We look forward to welcoming you to Komet and helping make your stay a memorable one.

Komet offers something a little different from a traditional hotel room or holiday cottage. This beautifully restored 57-foot canal boat combines the charm and character of life afloat with all the comforts of a modern holiday retreat. Finished in warm oak throughout, Komet has a cosy and welcoming atmosphere, complete with a traditional log burner, comfortable living space, fully equipped galley kitchen, streaming television, Wi-Fi, and a bathroom with bath and shower. Large windows allow guests to enjoy waterside views while remaining comfortably moored in the peaceful surroundings of Aqueduct Marina. To help guests feel at home, we provide thoughtful extras including complimentary tea and coffee, easy self-check-in, detailed local guides, and a range of optional experience packages such as breakfast hampers, afternoon tea, cheese and charcuterie boards, local craft beers, stargazing equipment, board games, and acoustic guitars for guests to enjoy during their stay. Unlike a moving hire boat, Komet remains permanently moored, allowing guests to experience the unique atmosphere of canal boat living without needing any boating experience. Guests can simply relax on deck, watch the marina life unfold, enjoy waterside walks, visit nearby Nantwich, or unwind beside the fire with a good book and a glass of wine. Our aim is simple: to provide a peaceful, memorable, and unique waterside escape where guests can slow down, relax, and enjoy a different pace of life.ocally.

Just a short drive away is the historic market town of Nantwich, renowned for its beautiful black-and-white timber-framed buildings, independent shops, cafés, pubs, and restaurants. The town's rich history, dating back to Roman times, makes it a fascinating place to explore. The area is also ideal for walkers and cyclists, with miles of canal towpaths and rural Cheshire countryside on the doorstep. Nearby attractions include the famous Anderton Boat Lift, the historic city of Chester with its Roman walls and cathedral, the gardens of Cholmondeley Castle, and the beautiful Cheshire villages scattered throughout the surrounding countryside. Food lovers are particularly well catered for, with traditional country pubs, waterside inns, artisan cafés, farm shops, and award-winning restaurants all within easy reach. Guests can enjoy everything from a hearty canal-side breakfast to fine dining in the evening. What many visitors enjoy most, however, is the contrast between being somewhere wonderfully peaceful and rural, while still having excellent access to Cheshire's towns, attractions, and transport links. It offers the perfect balance of relaxation, exploration, and a unique waterside experience.
