Step aboard this extraordinary floating home and experience a stay like no other on the Thames. With its industrial-chic interiors, bold contemporary design and spacious layout, it perfectly combines comfort, style and the magic of waterside living – an unforgettable retreat for both short breaks and longer stays.
The boat sleeps up to six guests across three beautifully designed bedrooms, each with its own boutique character. Two striking bathrooms add to the sense of comfort – one with a freestanding clawfoot tub and the other with a sleek modern shower. Spread across two floors, the layout balances privacy with generous social spaces, making it ideal for families or groups of friends.
The open-plan living and dining area is a true showpiece, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing sweeping river views. Industrial wood-and-metal finishes, playful art and statement furnishings create a stylish yet welcoming atmosphere, while the fully equipped kitchen makes cooking a pleasure. Above deck, the expansive private terrace offers the ultimate highlight – the perfect place for al fresco dining, evening drinks, or simply soaking up the ever-changing panorama of the river and surrounding greenery.
⚓ Please note: Staying on a riverboat is a unique riverside experience, very different from hotels or traditional apartments. The charm lies in its closeness to nature and the water — which can sometimes mean a little mud along the riverbanks. We recommend bringing suitable footwear, and we’ll provide a couple of pairs of wellies in case you get caught out by the tide and so you can step aboard and embrace the adventure in comfort! 🌿🐟
🚫 Accessibility: Please be aware that the boats are not suitable for those with impaired mobility. Access involves steep ramps and stairs to get onboard, which may be challenging for some guests.
DISCLAIMER: Free Parking with Height Restriction: Max head room is 1.9m
