What a lovely place! I rented the boat for one night after playing a show at Dingwalls (7 min on foot) and had one of the best sleeps of my life! The slight swaying of the boat and the sound of rain on the roof made for a very soothing experience. The host was super welcoming and replied instantly to any questions. Everything was perfect!

To stay in a narrowboat in the centre of London is truly unique. I stayed two nights on the boat with my three daughters and the kids and myself loved it. The inside of the boat is cosy and full of character. A gas heater kept us warm in February. The beds were comfy. For an additional fee the boat owner offered to take us on a little cruise along the canal, which was a really fun experience. Little Venice is a wonderfully quiet part of London.

Fabulous! We had a lovely time on this, yacht in the marina, Mark met us at the gate and showed us around the boat. He's very friendly and helpful and the boat was very well kept. It's in a great location, lots of bars and restaurants very close by and Tower Bridge is just a few minutes walk away. Highly recommended!

The houseboat has been renovated incredibly well and has everything you need for an extremely comfortable stay. The facilities inside the boat were perfect so that you could really settle in as if it was home. Everything was super clean, the bed was perfect and the person who greeted us was super friendly and helpful. Would absolutely recommend this to anyone!
