The Ark is a converted barge, originally built for service during the Second World War, and used for transporting supplies to the Mulberry harbours after the D Day landings. She is a flat-bottomed vessel, with a single chine which provides a slight rise of floor in the bow and stern to improve water flow when being towed in a seaway. The deck line lifts towards the bow and stern but is otherwise flat.
At deck level, the casing accommodates a large kitchen with double doors through to a very spacious living room with a wood burner for cosiness in winter. Large windows all around make the most of the stupendous views, whilst a second pair of double doors open out onto the stern which provides a fantastic 'deck' area, ideal for sunbathing or even having a bar-be-que! A stairwell descends to the lower accommodation which includes five large bedrooms. A large double bedroom is positioned in both the bow and the stern, and there are three other double bedrooms situated on the starboard side and extend to the centreline. To port there is a wide corridor with a shower-room amidships. Heating provided by electric radiators and woodburning stove. There is an additional 'Webasto' diesel fuelled hot air heating system available (currently not connected). Check it out on rightmove and Mart and Co websites!
