Boatman Narrowboat Eclectus

Entering from the stern, you are welcomed into the charming Boatman’s Cabin, complete with a traditional Epping range, drop-down table, and authentic period detailing that perfectly captures the heritage feel of the vessel.

Beyond lies the engine room — undoubtedly the beating heart of this stunning boat — where the impressive Gardner engine takes pride of place, beautifully presented and lovingly maintained.

The main bedroom follows, featuring a clever cross-bed arrangement that extends neatly across the cabin with two drop-down flaps, providing both comfort and efficient use of space.

The off-corridor shower room is well appointed with a spacious shower cubicle, cassette toilet, and wash basin.

The linear galley makes excellent use of the available space and benefits from solid Iroko worktops, ample cupboard storage, and a practical layout ideal for both liveaboard and leisure cruising.

Forward of the galley is the welcoming saloon, fitted with beautifully crafted cupboards and furnished with two comfortable armchairs and matching footstools — the perfect place to relax and enjoy the surroundings before stepping out onto the tug-style foredeck.

Trees, wildlife and calm waters – that’s what you’ll find at Kings Bromley Waterside & Marina, all near Burton on Trent, Lichfield, or Fradley Junction.

Surrounded by countryside, this quiet spot on the Trent and Mersey Canal is the perfect place to get away from it all. Conveniently situated in Staffordshire, Kings Bromley also has some great cruising routes, with Fradley Junction only a few miles away– it’s a great base to explore the Four Counties and the Cheshire Ring.

But there’s plenty to do on land, too, like the iconic National Memorial Arboretum, the Lichfield Cathedral, and the Tamworth Castle, all waiting to be explored. There’s also a nice pub just a short walk from the marina. For commuters, you’ve also got easy access to the A38, which is 10 minutes from the marina.
