Room clean and facilities ok for price. Just not much external lighting when trying to find the room in the dark. Also could do with updating heating systems as does make continuous noises. Not the best of night sleep

Visited the narrow boat for a 70th birthday lunch. Roast beef dinner was lovely. The staff were nice and attentive. We also stayed the night in one of their rooms which was clean warm and a comfortable bed. The rooms are in a block separate from the main building.

We stayed Friday for one night as we were visiting friends in nearby ****on Bec. We were warmly greeted by Julian and check-in was easy. Our accommodation is just across the car park and was more than adequate for our needs. We decided to have a drink before going out and there is a good selection of beers and wines, all reasonably priced. We thoroughly enjoyed chatting to Julian and learning about his sister's plans for The Narrow Boat. Obviously in January the weather isn't appropriate for sitting out in the garden overlooking the canal, but there is also another indoor restaurant that overlooks the terrace. We were more than happy sitting in the smaller restaurant/bar area particularly with the log-burning stove beside us! We had a look at the food menu which looked very nice and reasonably priced. Our breakfast on Saturday morning was delicious. My husband opted for the "full works" which had a supplement, whilst I went for the standard one. Very nicely presented and the poached eggs were perfectly cooked. As other people have said, The Narrow Boat is on the A5 so you will experience some noise from the road but you get used to it. We look forward to coming back to stay again the next time we're in the area. Thanks to Julian and the chef for making us so welcome.

This pub is great in the summer as it overlooks the canal, and has a really nice garden. However the inside lacks something so not a nice cosy space. Food ok but not that inspiring so would only go in for a drink.

I have just been charged £14 for a prawn and smoked salmon. Salad with about 10 tiny prawns and not even 1oz of salmon. Lettuce tomato and onion and hardly any dressing Extremely poor. This place used go do great roast dinners and even those have gone dow.hill We won't be visiting again. Feed people better than this or fail it's a shame and a rip off

We stayed for two nights at the Narrow Boat as it was a convenient base for our walk along the Grand Union Canal. The location (right on the canal) was excellent, the rooms are in a separate building across the car park so traffic noise from the busy road was not a problem. The rooms were well furnished and clean, and tea and coffee making facilities were provided. The beds were very comfortable, although extra pillows would have been welcome. Staff were unfailingly friendly and helpful. We ate in the restaurant both evenings, the menu is not huge but food was well cooked and portions were generous. Previous reviews have mentioned a lack of breakfast on weekdays, that appears to have changed as we had a delicious breakfast cooked to order both mornings. Overall the Narrow Boat met our needs perfectly and we found it good value for money.

Pleasant enough pub with accommodation cabins at the back of the car park, it was quiet when I stayed but I can imagine that being so closed to the A5 & right next to the canal the good sized carpark could get very busy. Very limited food menu, but all cooked fresh - so all good !

Decided to go for dinner on Saturday 26th August for our wedding anniversary. Ordered drinks, starters & mains. Ordered White Wine & a Beer. I ordered Fish and replaced chips with mash. Not a lover of crushed peas, prefer mushy peas so decided to not have the peas. Drinks came, the wine was warm not cold or even room temperature. Warm. 2 minutes later the waitress came to say they have no mash potato. Saturday night restaurant with no potatoes for mash??? Food took a long time to arrive even thought restaurant wasn’t busy. And yes you guessed it. Peas on the plate. Overall the service was average, the drinks were average and the food was average. Probably would not return.

One night stay - good location albeit road a little noisy, however my room had the smallest TV in the world.
