Richmond-upon-Thames : Bateaux-maisons

« We had the most wonderful stay at the boathouse with my mum and sister — such a unique and unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, the owner greeted us personally and gave us a lovely tour around the boat, showing us everything we needed to know. You can really tell how much thought has gone into every detail. There was a hairdryer, straighteners, plenty of plug sockets (including USB sockets), and lots of mirrors — all those little touches that make such a difference when you’re...

« Indeed a unique experience. Check in was simple. The apartment was clean and tidy, with all the basics that you might need for a short stay. The host company was very friendly and responsive (online). It got quite warm inside due to the warm, sunny weather. Fans were provided, but I imagine that it would be challenging to stay cool in the summer. Overall, would happily visit again. »

« We really enjoyed our stay in this very unique accommodation.The boat is moored in a second-row position in a charming neighborhood and is close to several метро stations. It’s long and narrow, full of character, and well equipped.We had a bit of trouble getting the hot water and heating to work at first, so the first morning was a little complicated. However, the owner was extremely responsive when we called for help and came shortly after to assist us, very kindly.The bedding is...

« The four magical days we spent on Jessie are a memory we will cherish, and talk about forever. We often treat holiday accomodation as somewhere we recharge when we are not having an experience, but quite honestly, getting back on board was always a highlight of the day, and a fantastic experience in itself. Swans, ducks, geese all coming up to the window to be fed was just idyllic. Canal boats with brass bands and choirs may have just been coincidence on the nights we were there but just added...

« What a joy it was to stay on the Princess Lucy. I booked her because I was doing research for a novel. But Little Venice is such a lovely area, and the boat was a delight. I spent several evenings picnicking on the bow with visiting friends, and just sitting out to read until late. 10/10 would book again. »

« Very quiet and relaxing. »

« We had a wonderful stay on this beautiful and cozy narrowboat. If you like a little bit of glamping and adventure combined with staying in Central London we would definitely recommend this lovely restored narrowboat. The boat is on a relatively quiet but vibrant location on Regent’s Canal and in the middle of the trendy area around Stone Coal Yard and Kings Cross station with beautiful shops, galleries and restaurants. We would also recommend to take a walk or bike along Regent’s canal to Camden...
