Either way it is too late for our Thames trip so we are taking a full refund and buying a shed instead. We know how to live 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must admit that we stayed in our waterside shed during the first lockdown. Granted that it is effectively in our garden but it is not our main residence. Interesting question, never considered it before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoggy Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 After June 21st can we all stay in your shed? PS. I don't actually want to stay in your shed, I just want everyone else to stay in your shed so the rivers are clear for me.... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, given how busy holiday accommodation is going to be this summer you might be onto something there............... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAVIDH Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 The school holidays are selling fast. As for the 12th or 13th April for 4 nights (second week of many children's Easter holidays), there were 146 boats showing available this morning on Hoseasons. This evening, there are 150 to choose from! So if it doesn't look as though it will be busy, if your on the Broads then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it subject to separate council tax banding as opposed to your house or included in the houses banding , if it is not separately banded then legally it is part of your main residence albeit detached from it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until 17 May, self catering holidays are restricted to single households, so the yards may still see cancellations on larger boats - or offer discounts for smaller parties - in the first few weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 That’s a very good point RS2021. I wonder how many larger parties will cancel or might decide one family or couple will keep the booking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolcat Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Planning to make a day trip to our boat on or just after 29th March. Will be doing some maintenance checks ready for when we can once again 'overnight' on her from the 12th April onwards (fingers crossed). It will have been a long four months that have passed but let us hope things start to improve for everyone, health wise, financially and for the economy to start to recover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
