| Welcome to Priory Marina
Canaltime Houseboats at Bedford
gracefully await your arrival at the welcoming and friendly
Priory Marina.
Ideally positioned alongside the River Great Ouse, your luxurious
floating holiday home in this historic County town sits within
a superb marina that shares its main land entrance with the
extensive Priory Country Park. With plentiful walks and a
boating and water sports lake, the extensive local bird life
and kite flying enthusiasts provide an even less hectic distraction.
Settle down, relax and just enjoy the peace and tranquillity
across the water.
Try a ramble down the towpath to a country pub or the short
walk along the river into the centre of town. Priory Marina
itself benefits from an adjacent hotel and a pub/restaurant
serving fine ales and good, hearty food. With an extensive
chandlery and a superb fishing shop, the sporty members of
the family can try their luck straight from the Houseboat
or even at a chosen point along the river itself (a national
rod licence is available at Post Offices).
 A
short stroll away a multiplex cinema, bowling alley and a
wide range of styled restaurants tempt the leisure seeker.
A little further, the themed indoor Oasis Beach Pool is great
for the children and adults alike especially if the weather
is a little inclement. Alternatively, the whole family can
hire bikes for the day and work off some excess energy through
some pedal pushing!
Bedford is easily accessed from both the A1 and M1 and has
direct rail links to London Gatwick, London Luton and Nottingham
East Midlands Airports*.
The rail network can also speed
you directly from Bedford straight into the heart of London
in around 45 minutes – the good news is that it will
also get you back again after a ‘night on the town’!
Unique accommodation in such close proximity to one of the
world’s great capital cities is a real bonus. A holiday
to remember indeed.
