We have had the most amazing year of Blossom memories this year, from Spring through to Autumn the canal is just beautiful!
Thank you to everyone who has booked with us and everyone who are booked on for next year 😁

I just want to make one little request for our four legged guests...
We love having your dogs aboard and there are no restrictions on where or what your VIPets go but...could I please ask that you bring throws to put over the bed if your dogs jump on furniture 🙏🏼 I have had to throw away quite a lot of bedding this year due to muddy paw prints that I just cannot get off the bedding obviously costs are increasing across all aspects of life and that includes me having to replace bedding frequently and Im trying so hard to keep my prices for Hiring Blossom as low as I possibly can in the current climate so if you could help me with this little request it would be much appreciated 🥰

That being said...please continue to bring your dogs AND cats, (theres no extra charge for pets) we've had an increase in cats joining us this year which has been lovely!! 🐕🐈‍⬛️

❗️Customer notice❗️
Some of you may be aware of the incredibly low water levels on our canal, I just want to reassure upcoming customers that, as it stands, Blossom is still out as normal.

We are down by about 1ft ish, Blossom is very shallow drafted so does manage extremely well in shallow water and we are doing what we can to keep her as light as possible.

That being said, we have no decent rainfall forecast so unless CRT release us a decent amount of water very soon, the situation may change but I will keep everyone updated as and when I know things are going to change.

🌦I know we are all enjoying the sunny dry weather but maybe we could do a little rain dance for Blossom over this coming week!🌦

Just thought I'd share the lovely review from our latest customers.
They couldn't work out how to add it to Google so I thought I'd share on here instead 🫶

🌸John, Mungo the dog and I had a really relaxing three nights on Blossom. Blossom was immaculately clean and very comfortable and well equipped. A little home from home. Cruising gently down the Lancaster Canal amidst such glorious nature with such wonderful views was a very special treat. We had one or two hairy moments but it was an adventure and all was fine. Thank you for the generous welcome packs for both humans and for Mungo. We would thoroughly recommend a holiday on Blossom and hope to rebook in the future.



Thank you and best wishes,



Jenny and John 🌸

⚠️Notice for any of my customers wishing to visit Morecambe whilst on Blossom.

Morecambe prom is only a short bus ride or 30 minute walk from bridge 117 where you can see some of the best sunsets in the world! 🌅

Please bare in mind though, Morecambe is notorious for quick sand and it can be extremely dangerous if you don't know what you're doing or where the quick sand is.🏖

We’re going on a diesel hunt… ⛽🚤
We’re going on a diesel hunt,
We’re going to fill up the tank!
What a beautiful day,
We’re not running away…

Uh oh… low fuel gauge! 😳

Can’t go over it,
Can’t go under it,
Oh no…
We’ve got to go through it!

Glug glug, chug chug, fill it up quick! ⛽

We’re going on a diesel hunt,
With Blossom leading the way 🌸🚤
Cruising the cut,
Not a worry in sight…
Until the engine says “oi!” 😅

Early evening Diesel hunt for us tonight, Lancaster and Morecambe are down to the last drops in the garages so we're on an emergency trip to grab the last of it for Blossom!!!

"Are there any pubs?"...
That might be the most asked question at Blossom handovers and the answer is always, yes, absolutely!

This guy has just done a Lancaster pub crawl so you can get an idea of just how many traditional lovely pubs we have in our area.
