Home - The Hippie Boat

We’re thrilled to be attending the Nant Gwrtheyrn Christmas Fair on Saturday, 29th November!

It’ll be our first outing with The Hippie Boat On Wheels at a local event, and although we’ll have a smaller indoor setup, we will be bringing plenty of gorgeous fair-trade boho & festival clothing, bags, jewellery, incense, decorative hangings and a small selection of new & vintage high street fashion labels.

If you’d like us to bring something specific from the website, simply order online and choose ‘collection in person’ + ‘pay on collection’.

We’ve also upgraded our checkout! You can now use Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal (including Pay Later), card payments, Klarna, Clearpay, and direct bank transfer.

And from Monday 17th November – Thursday 18th December, enjoy FREE 48hr tracked postage for online orders over £10

THE HIPPIE BOAT

WELCOME TO OUR SHOP

We are Pete & Jules and we created The Hippie Boat Brand in 2015. Operating as Roving Traders from our narrowboat, we cruised the UK Canals and Rivers setting up our extensive outdoor display of Fair Trade Festival Style Clothing, Bags, Accessories, Incense and other ethically sourced merchandise from the side of the boat at various towpath locations over the Spring & Summer months.

Last year, after a move off the boat to a traditional Welsh cottage on the Llyn Peninsula, we hit the road in a Motorhome and took our pop-up shop to various land based Festivals, some of which were in areas that we haven’t previously been able to reach by boat! Thank you so much to everyone that made 2024 such an absolutely awesome trading experience! Despite the challenges of adverse weather at times, which saw gazebos taking off in all directions, we had so much fun; we reunited with friends, made lots of new friends, enjoyed listening to some fantastic bands, sold lots of gorgeous clothes to lovely customers and made wonderful memories. Travelling on wheels enabled us to zig zag across the country rather than being confined to one canal route and it really opened up our trading options.

We are now looking forward to our second year of land trading and are excited to get on the road again with the Hippie Boat on Wheels.

Love

Jules & Pete xx

I’m in a sling for a couple of weeks, in order to immobilise & rest my shoulder, so Pete has been temporarily promoted to chief cook and bottle washer! Yesterday, with supervision (I cannot relinquish complete control 😂) , he made this Mediterranean veg and bean soup/casserole and it is delicious 😋👌🤩 We had it topped with basil infused tofu for extra protein #nutritiousanddelicious #autumnishere #cookingforhealth #veganfoodie ...

I haven’t posted much lately, but it doesn’t mean that we have been idle 😁 Pete is recovering really well and is walking every day, getting fitter and fitter. No results though until after 12th Nov when he will have his first post op PSA blood test. We have also had a steady stream of house guests, which has been lovely, with more to come and next weekend, we are heading to East Yorkshire for the wedding of my gorgeous youngest God-daughter. There has been lots of sourdough baking and I have been making the most of the dry weather and have almost completed my latest project 😊 which has been on my to do list for quite sometime. I have also loaded almost all of our stock onto our website now too and we are hoping to do a Christmas Fayre down at Nant Gwythern at the end of Nov, when Pete should be fit enough for the loading and unloading of the van #christmasfair #diyprojects #gardenwalls #sandandcement ...
