Lakeland Leisure Estates & Kingsground: Your Bespoke Widebeam Opportunity

Elegance afloat, exclusivity redefined.

Lakeland Leisure Estates Ltd proudly announces its latest collaboration with Kingsground, the renowned bespoke boatbuilders, to create a truly exceptional widebeam. Set to make its grand debut at Crick Boat Show 2025, this 65ft x 12ft luxury vessel represents the pinnacle of Kingsground’s 30-year legacy in crafting award-winning canal boats.

This is your opportunity to own a truly bespoke widebeam—a boat designed for you, with your preferences in mind. The shell has now been delivered to the Kingsground workshop, and work is officially underway. But there's still time to get involved in the creative process and personalise key design elements to suit your vision of the perfect floating home.

Built on a Duchy shell, custom-crafted by Colecraft, this two-bedroom widebeam is the jewel in the Kingsground crown—designed to offer an unparalleled experience, whether moored in a marina or cruising the waterways.
