Romantic boat stay in a unique Escape Pod

"Ava Rose" is fresh and unique converted Oil Rig Rescue Craft. Moored in Bowling Harbour on the Forth and Clyde Canal, it has great access to Glasgow City Centre as well as great routes to Loch Lomond and the Highlands. The boat has been converted to a high standard and designed to have everything a couple should need for a few days away. There is a large cosy ‘almost’ superking size bed, a beautiful little wood burner capable of keeping everyone warm and toasty even when the canal has frozen over. The kitchen area has a small hob, sink, fridge and all cutlery and utensils required. In the compact bathroom there is a sink, toilet and shower. I live in Glasgow West-End about 6 miles down the road and contactable on here or mobile at all times The mooring has secure entry, with locking gates. The marina offers a coffee shop, gift shop, and bike hire. In the village, a 5min walk, there is a cosy local pub that serves food. The next village along, Old Kilpatrick (approx 1mile) has a few more pubs and takeaway shops Bowling train station is a 10min walk, this can take you directly into Glasgow and as far as Edinburgh, or you can go the other direction to Loch Lomond. Driving is simple, we are just off the A82, which will take you directly into Glasgow (10miles) or to Loch Lomond. (8miles) The shower cubicle is short on height, and people taller than 5'11 may need to bend down, or use the shower seat provided. There are other excellent shower facilities for boat residents if this is an issue.
