    The boat was in a lovely safe location, very easy walk to town centre. And it was so quiet and peaceful. The boat was well equipped , it even had electric blankets for extra warmth if you had needed it. Wish we could have stayed longer.

A newly refurbished & upgraded Horizon 35 cruiser benefiting from a new shower room, well equipped kitchen gas oven, heating, kettle, memory foam mattresses with electric under blanket to the double bedroom & heated throws in the single room & saloon for extra cosiness. Large single in saloon can converted to a double on request. Perfectly located yet peaceful for business , a romantic weekend or a family adventure!
Hello, I'm Simon a local family and business man. Having travelled around the UK often having to stay over in some amazing but also many substandard and uninspiring accommodations, I wanted to create an option in my home city that was comfortable, practical and unique. New Horizon combines my love of the waterways and a passion for conveniently placed luxurious accommodation that goes above and beyond in terms of comfort.
The boat, New Horizon is moored just a 5 minute drive or a 15 minute walk from Chelmsford train station. It's a one minute walk from the city's Tesco superstore, Ninja Warrior UK and a 2 minute walk from Chelmsford's bustling bond street which is host to John Lewis, Everyman cinema, 2 art galleries, Foyles book store, Tiptree tea rooms & New Horizon's favourite recommendation for breakfast, Jamaica Blue. Also available Ask, Bills, Prezzo, Giggling Squid, Las Iguanas, Wagamama, Leon, Mowgli street food and more beyond. Chelmsford's landmarks & useful to know Chelmsford Cathedral (11 mins walk) Shire Hall (13 mins walk) New Horizon recommend Turtle Bay for informal hearty lunch/dinner with a Caribbean twist (13 mins walk) Independent eateries along Baddow Road (15 mins walk) Central Park (18 mins walk) Independent shops Moulsham Street (20 mins walk) ARU university (18 mins walk) Chelmsford Museum (28 mins walk) High street market days are Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays
