Just wanted to a say a massive thank you- Jack and I had a lovely weekend. The Kingfisher is absolutely gorgeous and you've made the space so relaxing. We love a weekend away, and I can genuinely say Hawthorn Hideaway is one of the best, if not the best, places we've ever stayed. Thank you for being so hospitable, and for providing all those extra touches. We'll definitely be back in future! x

We had an absolutely beautiful mini moon at Hawthorn Hideaway. The location is just stunning with beautiful fairy lights lighting up the beautiful woodland. We stayed in Swan Lodge and the accommodation was perfect, the breakfast hamper had everything we need to cook up a full English breakfast. During our stay we did the private dining experience which was absolutely outstanding of this world. We also had a couples massage which was lush. The bbq cabin was a fun experience also. What an amazing start to our married life, we are already planning when to come back.

Kingfisher is a lovely " luxury" boat and its a great wsy to see the Chesterfield canal but have a base to explore from. Garden is wonderful. Loved watching the sunsets over the canal and the hot tub got plenty of use. The canal itself very quiet peaceful and beautiful. Breakfast hamper a real bonus. Cinema Dome cute and added electric blanket perfect for chilly evenings.

If taking Kingfisher out be aware of the weed ... in our case towards the Trent. We needed to clear the green algae at least twice away from prop. ( not really a problem) Definately worth watching the boats arrive and leave the basin onto the Trent if you time it right. Also visited Gainsbrough Old Hall and Connisbrough castle. Both good value and worth seeing.

So glad you enjoyed your 4 days getaway on Kingfisher Narrowboat. There's lots to do around and 4 days gives you a chance to make the most of your self drive on Kingfisher Narrowboat. A bit of adventure, romance, history and relaxation. Best wishes, Josephine and Ronnie
