The Reveal

CozyInsta-WorthyRelaxingCentral location

Widebeam canal boat called Freedom cruising Bath all summer. Check freedomcanalstudio webbsite for location & cruising schedule before booking. I cannot ******** exact location due to having no fixed mooring & frequently move, but usually close to city centre. There are 2 double rooms, sofa bed, hammock and rooftop tent to sleep. And a grand piano, guitar, chess, wigs, heels.... Also do cruises/parties, yoga, meditation, musical and naked events. Clothing optional everywhere.

Double bed for guests in 2nd bedroom. Captain & husband live aboard. Large walk-in shower. Sunroof. Galley kitchen. Bluetooth HiFi with 100w speakers. Yamaha c2 grand piano available to play. Space to jam and dance. Hammock on the poop deck. Huge roof space for chilling and sunbathing. If staying several nights it's likely you'll get a short cruise since we frequently move location. This summer mostly in or near Bath. You can see more pics on Freedom Canal Studio.

Price included lush breakfast. Let me know any dietary requirements in advance. Optional dinner with free wine £20 - please prebook and say what you'd like.

Host recommendations

No smoking. No pets. Otherwise as the boat name implies - Freedom! I have occasional musical events, cruises and parties. Your stay may also coincide with a cruise (I move on every 14 days or less). I host guests in a rooftop tent, hammock (inside or out) and the 2nd double room. Grand piano available to play. Keen to hear your favourite tracks on the Bluetooth hifi system.

There's a difference between somewhere that scores high on the tick boxes and one where you're made to feel completely at home. David and Pyae's home is one of those. It's impossible to define, but you leave with a warm heart, relaxed, refreshed and contented. Thank you both.

As a trans guy, it can be a challenge to find gay men that are so open minded and willing to ask questions! What an absolute delight: curious, different than the usual, an utterly accommodating and sweet couple! So happy to have stayed here, to know these guys just a bit and share in a few moments. The walls are paper thin (I can hear breath next to my head when I wake up in the middle of the night) but the heart is wildly warm and full of care! Totally happy with this off-the-beaten-path offering.

David was very welcoming and friendly and gave us all the details to find his boat. The room was clean and we were able to help ourselves to tea and coffee. Breakfast was included and we were able to come and go as we pleased. Well recommend for a more unique stay.

I had a very pleasant stay with David and Peay. Freedom is a very comfortable wide-beam canal boat. I slept on the bed-sofa, in the salon, which was fairly comfortable. There was another guest staying in the guest bedroom. David and Peay are very welcoming and we had lots of good conversation. The grand piano was a key highlight for me and I was able to play it a little, limited by time. David and Peay cooked very tasty food (dinner for an extra charge of £20, including wine). My only disappointment was the 10am check-out time. My departure, after the large breakfast that was provided, and lots of conversation with the other guest and David and Peay, felt very hurried, particularly on a Sunday morning. An 11am check-out (very much the normal in almost all other accommodation) would have been much preferred. Would you please consider permitting 11am check-outs in future.

Everything I expected it to be, great get away! David is a wonderful host and it was a pleasure staying in his beautiful home. It's a great place to read, journal, relax listening to your own music or to listen to David playing his piano. Would definitely go back.

It was my first time staying in a boat and it was an amazing experience staying at Freedom. David is a very welcoming host with an extraordinary energy and makes you feel like you were at home. He also prepares great meals with a fantastic presentation. We had nice chats along with good music played by him. I strongly recommend and I will be back for sure. Thank you David! :)

I look forward to my return very much.
