Live London differently. The houseboat is a unique place to stay in London, just down the River Thames from Tower Bridge and the Tower of London and just 5 minutes’ walk from Limehouse DLR station which means that all London landmarks are right on your doorstep. It is designed with every comfort in mind, including super fast Wifi, smart TV with content streaming services, extra comfortable beds with mattress toppers, feather down pillows and top quality linen. A freestanding bath and separate shower in the luxuriously appointed bathroom complete an experience which you and your guests will not forget. There are radiators throughout the boat making this a cosy and comfortable home all year round. The space You enter the boat at the stern (back) where you’ll find seating for 6-8 people around a wooden semi-circular table and comfortable semi-circular bench seating with soft cushions. Outlook across Limehouse Marina from all aspects. There is an infra-red lamp hanging above the table which provides both light in the evening and heat for those cooler days and nights, making this covered area useable all year round.
You then step down into a large open plan living space. Here you will find a comfortable corner sofa facing a wall mounted 43” smart TV with content streaming services available, supported by the super fast Wifi. In this space there is also a small library with an excellent cross-section of books for those lazier days on board. Just to one side there is a desk and chair for anyone who needs to work from home while on board.
Beyond this is an amazing kitchen and eating space, incorporating a very large marble-topped island (with sink and breakfast bar and four stools). This is a state of the art kitchen which any chef will be happy to work from, which includes a wine fridge, dishwasher, washer/dryer, integrated oven/microwave/grill, large fridge and separate freezer. Every possible piece of kitchen equipment is included to allow you to prepare meals on board or simply to be confident of your wine being chilled at exactly the right temperature.
The corridor leading off the open plan living area is lined with artwork from around the world. The first room you come to is the smaller second bedroom with a luxurious double bed, guaranteeing the most comfortable night’s sleep. All linen, towels, pillows and duvets are of the very highest standard. This bedroom has an open wardrobe with hanging and storage space for your clothes.
The next door leads to the very well appointed bathroom. There is a freestanding bath, separate shower unit with a rainforest shower head, basin, and WC. Grey slate flooring completes the room.
There is a connecting door from the bathroom into the main bedroom, passing through a dressing room area with plenty of hanging space and drawer space for all of your clothing and other personal items. The main bedroom itself feels indulgent and spacious. The king size bed is supremely comfortable with top quality mattress topper and a beautiful deep green velvet headboard. There are beautiful original paintings hanging on the walls and double doors give out onto a very private patio space at the bow (front) of the boat, complete with planting, two comfortable seats and a small table for your morning cup of coffee or evening drink. The space (and all windows down one side of the boat) offer spectacular views across the marina, looking west towards the setting sun.
The mooring position of this boat is without doubt the most favourable in the whole of the marina, totally private and offering a quiet hideaway in this global city, yet within easy reach of all London’s tourist attractions. Guest access You will be able to access all areas of the boat

Calm, clean and comfortable, our stay on this lovely canal boat was all we hoped it would be.Five minutes walk to the light rail, close to Canary wharf shops and restaurants, ten minutes to the Tower of London and Bridge. Delightful boat to return to after a busy day in London.

The houseboat was such a great idea to experience London as a family, made even better thanks to James who is everything you hope for in a host: responsive, attentive, and caring. Would stay there again in a heart beat!
Perfectly clean, great location, easy to get around the city from the location.
Very well appointed, everything you may need.
Host was great, check in was smooth.
Highly recommend
lovely stay here in london, james was friendly, responsive, accommodating & a fantastic host! if you’re looking to still be in the city while being away from the hustle and bustle of downtown london to turn down, this is the place for you! would stay here again!
Staying at the houseboat was a highlight of our trip to London! Beautifully appointed, wonderful communication with the host and property manager, and close to the DLR and Canary Wharf ferry for transportation. We loved returning each evening to our quiet oasis after a day of sightseeing. We can’t wait to return!
The boat provided us with a very comfortable base from which our group of two couples in their 60s could explore Central London and the Abba arena. The fully equiped kitchen and cozy lounge was a very welcome place to relax and socialise. The vicinity of the LDR made our journeys simpke and quick
Great location in a spacious (wide) canal boat with lots of perks, this was a gem.
We found the beds, lounge area, kitchen and bath to be up to date and comfortable.
Anytime of year this is a perfect rental. Location was excellent and quiet as well as safe.
A+
From check in everything was great! Ms. Pam met us to go over everything, and gave great recommendations. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was amazing, we got to ride bikes around and explore the area and met great people. Thank you for making London a memorable stay!

The boat was beautiful and very comfy. The hosts were very helpful explaining all the particulars of living on a boat. The area around the boat was relaxing and pretty. We would definitely repeat !
An excellent two bedroom boat house located in Limehouse Basin, a few minutes walk to the DLR with several restaurants in close proximity. Our family really enjoyed our break in London and relaxing in the evening in the covered seated section of the boat.
I’ve stayed in various places in London over thirty years but never on a houseboat. The location is lovely, quiet, and interesting. The houseboat itself is roomy and beautifully decorated from any vantage point. The beds were comfy and the rooms charming. The houseboat is conveniently located near the DLR station, a market, and a notable pub and has a great neighborhood feel. James’s hospitality and helpfulness were exactly what we needed. He answered questions quickly and gave good suggestions. Our only regret was that our stay wasn’t longer. We hope to return another time. This was a 10 experience.
A perfect respite after a busy day. The houseboat exceeded expectations from a comfortable bed and large bath in quiet harbor with peaceful river view. Everything from communications and check in was seamless and easy. Pam was great in meeting us and making sure we would have a great stay for our anniversary. Traveling into the city using the DLR and Tubes was quick and easy. We loved sitting on the bow with a wine or beer and people/dog/duck watching at the end of the day.
Even better than described and pictured! James was so helpful and patient and an excellent host. Luxury linens, comfy furniture, and a view that can’t be beat. The surrounding area is a bit busy but we experienced nothing but peace and quiet during our stay. Very convenient location for Uber rides, too! We hope to have the chance to return.
The boat is ideally located for getting in to Central London as wellas Canary Wharf. My friends and I had a lovely relaxing week on the water. James is am excellent host. I will be back.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful houseboat. Check in with Pam was easy and she gave us all the informatiin we needed and could not have been more helpful. The boat was very clean extremely comfortable beds, very warm and well stocked with everything we needed. The Limehouse Basin Areaa was lovely and well served by the DLR which was only a 5-10 min stroll away. We loved everything about our stay here andvwould highly recommend it. We were sorry to leave.scrupulous
This was our first experience on a houseboat and we loved it! The property manager Pam was awesome and easy to reach with any issues. She also provided excellent guidance for dining choices in the area and easy access to the DLR public transport system. The boat was amazing and we would do it again when we get back to London.

It's very rare to come across a place and have no complaints, but I can say just that, not one complaint. I loved everything about our stay here in this wonderful houseboat! It had everything you need. It was very clean, very comfortable, and the host was extremely accommodating and very responsive. I hope people see this comment and check this place out when you're visiting London, because it was truly beautiful.
What can I say great from the start. The owner communicated with us from the beginning of booking, gave us some great advice and helped with logistics. Upon arriving a clear and concise brief was given and the boat is stunning and has everything you could possibly want, a small and enjoyable walk took us to Canary Wharf where the Uber boats took us all the way down the Thames We will be booking again.
We couldn’t have thought that pictures showed how fabulous this boat is but when you see her and enter it’s stunning. The main area and gorgeous kitchen was a dream. The bedrooms are roomy and everything you could think you needed was available to you.
We stayed here at the end of our long trip and it was the highlight. We couldn’t wait to get back each day.
Thank you James and Pam for everything!!

The location is absolutely stunning for a unique experience to recommend to friends. The communication was fantastic. The property was beautiful…I wish my own home was as comfortable! It is in a great location, with the DLR line very close by, giving access to so much of London. There were several fun pubs and restaurants easily within walking distance. When we were tired of touring, need to relax was met with beautiful relaxation places on the boat and a Tesco Express close by for food. We had never stayed on a boat before, so our host gave us the grand tour and made sure that we had perfect instructions. The amenities were easy to use. The beds were comfortable. We were in a very safe location with only a bit of city noise. We could hear the ducks, geese and paddlers go by, making the water experience beautiful. Communication and directions were perfect. We felt a part of the neighborhood with the information. I highly recommend this as a place to be if visiting London. I am so thankful that we were able to stay here. It made it special.
