A Touch of History and Clever Design
Our chaise longues are inspired by 16th-century French furniture makers. They first created them so wealthy people could relax without going to a bedroom. We bring this same luxury right into your narrowboat. Mothership Marine chaise longues come with one or two ends. We design them carefully to use every bit of space. We also focus on keeping clean, horizontal lines along the boat. This design trick makes your cabin feel more open and spacious – a key feature for narrowboat living.
Versatility for Day and Night
Our narrowboat chaise longues offer more than just daytime lounging. At night, the clever ends fold down easily. This creates a comfy, full-length bed for a good night’s sleep. You’ll find plenty of storage underneath the seating, too. It’s spacious and easy to get to, helping you keep your living area tidy. What’s more, just add a table, and the whole area quickly becomes a dining space. It can seat up to six people, perfect for hosting guests or enjoying meals on board.
Customise Your Comfort and Style
We offer these great chaise longues in two ways. You can get a fully upholstered version, ready to enjoy right away. Or, choose a calico version. This lets you add your own personal touch with your chosen upholstery fabric.
When picking upholstery, think about materials that are strong, simple to clean, and suited for a marine environment. If you love classic looks and want to add timeless charm to your narrowboat, check out the beautiful designs from Morris & Co.
