Living on the Water

A Sought-After Lifestyle Waiting to be Discovered

Living in a boat offers a greener, more relaxed and more individual way of life. It can also be significantly cheaper than living on land.

These days living on a boat isn't about roughing it. Residential and commercial boats are warm, comfortable and well-specified. They come in a range of styles and sizes, so you'll be able to find one to fit your personality and your practical requirements. You'll also be able to choose from a range of moorings with wonderful city-centre or more rural locations - all with a comprehensive range of great facilities.

Other benefits of this unique lifestyle include:

  • Being part of a vibrant, friendly waterside community.
  • Living a greener lifestyle, travel more sustainably and be closer to nature.
  • What's more, when you feel like an adventure, you can cast off and go exploring Scotland's canals.

Explore the new Living on Water website to discover the residental, leisure and commercial opportunities along the Scottish Canals.
