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.

I've always wanted to stop on a boat and decided to book this for my Husband's birthday. It is ideally located in Sheffield city centre. It's a short walk from the train station and the main shopping area. The owner sent very clear instructions on how to get here .The boat was very clean and comfortable. The heaters were on when we arrived so it was lovely and cozy and there are blankets to get snuggled on the sofa. The bed was really comfortable. We got woken up by the ducks the next morning. It was just a lovely place to stay

staying on Narrowboat "Powys" on the Grand Union canal only 5 minutes walk to Paddington was the most enjoyable trip to London that I've had. The quiet and peace on the canal is so unexpected for London but until you've sat out on the bow or the transom and enjoyed your morning tea watching the ducks swim by you will never understand how lovely and peaceful it is. The Kitchen is a big bonus and having breakfast on the boat and some snacks for the evening was a serious benefit. The information provided will help you navigate the differences as it is a boat after all but I loved it.

Location was perfect, just a short walk from Paddington station along the canal. M&S food hall, greggs and Tesco all very close by. Several good places to eat without having to travel, but sometimes you had to book first. Romantic and special! An area with a good community feel with big screens around that people could meet up in. Boat very comfortable and special, so much more than just a hotel room.

Location was very peaceful and quiet, we were exceptionally lucky with the weather. The boat was very clean and comfortable enough for us. Everything we needed was on board. Facilities at the marina were very good, which was great because the bathroom and toilet facilities on the boat were really only for use as a back up.

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!

Was a lovely surprise for my partners birthday. The yacht had everything you needed and included just little appreciated touches like some snacks and milk for a hot drink in the morning. The gentleman who owns the boat showed me everything I needed to know and was really helpful.
