About this property
Conversion Of Listed Canal Side Stable, Views Over Rolling Fields
Offers rural seclusion and a great base for gongoozling (canal watching!), walking and cycling. It is within easy driving to Stratford, the Cotswolds, Coventry Cathedral, Warwick Castle, Leamington Spa and National Trust properties.
The property is adjacent to the lock keepers cottage and was originally built for the horses used on the canal. The only other neighbours are sheep, although there is a traditional pub 100 metres away.

About the host
Hosted by Nigel Wood
The owner Nigel is a canal enthusiast which led him to the property in the first place.
Keen on all things steam, he occasionally crews on the Steam narrow Boat President on her trips away from the black country museum.
Other interests include cycling and motorcycling. Napton is a great base for doing both
