UK luxury boating collection

Hoseasons, one of the UK's largest self-catering holiday businesses, has announced an exclusive new collection of first class boating escapes called 'Starboard'.

The new Starboard collection combines the freedom of a boating holiday with a first-class holiday experience - offering consumers the opportunity to take to the water in style in 2014. The boating escapes will be aimed at families, couples and groups of friends, looking to try a new holiday experience coupled with a high level of service and amenities. 

Twenty Starboard boats will be available at four bases across the canal network of England and three bases on the Norfolk Broads, with boats sleeping between two and eight people. 

"Over the past five years Hoseasons have successfully launched new products in the Lodges and Parks marketplace after experiencing a growth in desire for this type of accommodation and the natural next stage was to develop a new boating collection," said Simon Altham, Managing Director of Hoseasons. "Boating holidays are a fantastic way to explore the UK's rivers, canals and inland waterways, but our research has told us that often this type of experience isn't immediately associated with the highest quality accommodation. Starboard has been designed to bridge this gap and offer luxury boating with a touch of class to our customers - old and new.

"What we've learnt in launching other new product ranges is that consumers expect an experience that is as good or better than home, and while boats are a unique way of taking a holiday, holidaymakers still want high quality linen, technology to use iPods, iPads and MPS players, along with guides to local gastro-pubs."

The boats will offer contemporary interiors with top quality kitchen facilities, living areas and bedrooms. While each boat will have its own individual feel, there will also be a universal level of quality across all the fleet with flat screen TVs, DVD players, welcome packs, games and binoculars, guides to local wildlife and the ability to carry bikes on board.

To enhance the holiday experience, customers will also receive a starter pack containing champagne, priority check-in, outdoor blankets for the cool evenings and the ability to book short breaks throughout the season.
