is truly different. Our vessel Edward Elgar is a Riverboat Hotel which has been running river tours
and boat holidays on the historic Cotswold River Severn out of Gloucester for over 10 years. We
offer a variety of river cruise holidays from unique weekend breaks up to a full river cruise for
individuals and groups.
Cotswold River
Cruises with a Difference
Our river cruise holidays
run along the historic Cotswold River Severn navigation from Gloucester with stunning views of the
countryside and visits to local heritage sights. There are also opportunities for walking, bird
watching, shopping, friendly socialising or just quiet relaxation.
• We offer a variety of holidays, from our Unique Weekend Break right up to a
Full River Cruise.
• All of our holidays run on the Edward
Elgar Riverboat Hotel along the Cotswold River Severn
• Different cruises cater for singles, couples, groups, tour operators and special events • Our
boat holidays and river tours are unique all – inclusive package holidays.
• We are NOT crowded or busy like sea cruises and we are more spacious and comfortable than canal
barge holidays and boat trips on the Thames. We make you feel relaxed and cared for.
