Barging in Europe

Every European summer, for three months, we explore the rivers, canals and towns of Western Europe in our 18m barge, Yavanna. Yavanna is a English wide boat and was built by Pickford & Arnold in Yorkshire. Her first owner who had her built, was by profession a cabinet maker which resulted in the wonderful interior. All the cupboards are made from cherry wood and the tongue and grove ceiling and walls are from Cedar.

Our Saloon


Our saloon is very cosy and comfortable and seats five, six at a push. We did have a television but never watched it once in five years so last year we disposed of it.
Now we have more bookshelves. We swop books with others as we go along and this year we have both bought E-Readers. We have a antique pot belly (not ours) that works but we have never needed to light it. A skylight and hatch in the ceiling brings in light and fresh air.
