Let your canal boat take you around the world! Or
your house could send you cruising UK canals!
|
 Having a boat on the
UK waterways system is an asset
that can be taken advantage of in many ways. All around the world there are
people looking for different holiday experiences.
Lending your property to
unknowns may sound a bit scary but the principle of
house exchange is well established and tends to work well, with both sides
extending and responding to the mutual trust of allowing another family the
privilege of using their home - and often the car as well. So why not a canal boat?
|
You
can follow up any of the opportunities listed below. We present this information as
a free service and can make no guarantees about the descriptions or arrangements offered, you
must make your own further enquiries and agreements.
If
you would like to offer a
boat/house holiday exchange just fill in our
Listings Request
Form.
There is no charge!
But we only list holiday exchanges involving a UK canal boat
and we do not include free links to other websites!

not need to do a week for week style swap,
but could enter into flexible arrangements
