- ACTIEF -
The Barge & Her Layout
The Upper Thames, England
The 11-passenger Actief was launched in Holland in 1907 and thus is celebrating her 100th birthday in 2007.
Originally built as a cargo vessel, Actief spent her first 70 years plying her trade across the English Channel. She was bought in 1976 and converted to luxury hotel use with Actief's accomodation beautifully presented in the style of an English Country House. Actief has been refurbished and regularly maintained and updated since that time.
The spacious flower-lined sun deck, and comfortable elegant saloon are complimented by beautifully decorated cabins. Actief's is fully air conditioned and her sleeping accommodation comprises three suites (Astor, Wolsey and Nelson) which can be configured with single or double beds, plus two staterooms with twins, and also a single cabin.

Actief's crew of four is comprised of the Captain, Chef and two Hostesses. With their broad knowledge of the area and its folklore, the crew of Actief is totally committed to your enjoyment of your holiday.
