Located in Rochester, the recently renovated Inner Dowsing Lightship provides accommodation 3.1 km from Rochester Castle and 4.2 km from Chatham Train Station. Housed in a building dating from 19th century, this boat is 4.8 km from Historic Chatham Dockyard and 20 km from Leeds Castle. Outdoor seating allows guests to enjoy the fresh air. Beautifully converted spacious accommodation in a quiet location. Our main purpose for visiting Medway was to go to Chatham Historic Dockyard, so finding a historic ship to stay on was perfect.

Victoria and Albert Museum is 6.6 km from the boat, while Natural History Museum is 6.8 km away. London City Airport is 23 km from the property. This is my second stay at Ahoy London. And it was just a great as my first trip. The boat is cosy and homely. The hosts are warm, welcoming and accommodating. The location is only a short walk from tubes and buses.

Offering city views, Houseboat Hotels is an accommodation situated in Sheffield, 4.6 km from FlyDSA Arena and 25 km from Chatsworth House. Boasting private check-in and check-out, this property also provides guests with DVD player. The boat has private entrance. A unique accommodation on a canal boat moored at a quay very near the city center. Quite fun! Spotlessly clean and run by a charming host. If you are looking for the Ritz Carlton, go elsewhere. But if you are in the mood for something different in a great location with all needs met, give this houseboat a try! There’s an easy to understand guide to the facilities on the boat. Included parking is right at the boat and directions to access are complete and simple. Nearby pubs and cafes. If you go, and you see owner Mark around the boats in the morning, talk to him! He is friendly with loads of stories and information and can tell you all about the boats. Our first visit to Sheffield, an interesting city with lots of history and many restaurants, pubs and historical sights. We hope to be back!

Great location, easy to access the boat and it had everything we had needed. It was like staying in an upgraded hotel and we thoroughly enjoyed it and loved out stay. It was well located for access to the main areas we needed and a short drive to Staines and the shops. It was very clean tidy and exceeded our expectations
