Boat holiday rentals in Great Britain

Overall, everything about the accommodation was a pleasant surprise. Cleanliness, communication, and charm were all as good as it gets, and Joyce was a delightful host. Staying in a boat along with the time spent exploring the canal on foot really made the trip. Thanks!

Wonderful, well equipped and surprisingly spacious. Lovely to stroll along the canal or enjoy nearby Primrose Hill. Andres was very quick to respond. A magical experience.

Thank you Andrew, we loved staying in your quirky Airbnb. The boat was cosy & warm. You were welcoming & knowledgeable. Left the car at the location & got the number 3 bus into Bath for the Christmas markets - fab location. Thank you

Very close to the city center, the accommodation is spacious and pleasant. Jean-Marie is passionate and is a facilitator. I recommend it.

This is the second time we have stayed. Everyone is so helpful and accommodating and we would recommend to anyone. Thank you for a wonderful time.

Lovely unique place to stay. The stove kept the boat cozy even on a stormy night. Ger was very responsive to anything we needed. Fun exploring the canal and easy to get to site near. Groceries and restaurants walkable as well.

Great place, nice and relaxing. Is ideal for a family get together. Lovely host and very helpful. Would definitely recommend to friends.

Excellent hosting and value for money. Franck even helped me resolve a work issue. I highly recommend it.

We really enjoyed staying at this unusual place … It is close to the beach and restaurant The boat is clean, cocooning and even nicer in real life! The night was relaxing and our hosts welcoming and warm! A very nice breakfast is dropped off in the morning ... We're definitely thinking about coming back Thanks Catherine and Michael!

Perfect organization for key pickup. Atypical and comfortable accommodation, it's a bit magical to sleep in the harbor on a boat. Juliette was very present and responsive to guide and advise us. I recommend it! Thanks again

We stayed on the Gin Odyssey for the bank holiday weekend. Ric, the owner and host could not have been more accommodating. Clear instructions before arrival, all the information we needed for our break, wifi passwords, local recommendations he could not have been more helpful. The boat is located in a really good location, next to beach for fishing and crabbing and a 10minute walk from the harbour and restaurants. As a family of 5 with one younger child there was plenty for everyone. Highly recommended to anyone wanting something a bit different.

Nice experience with our two kids ( 9 and 13 )

Very pleasant and exotic weekend aboard Richard's sailboat. The kids were thrilled. The boat is friendly and convenient, the bathrooms are close and clean. Richard is a very considerate and available host. Thank you.

We had a fantastic time onboard Sea Wolf, we loved the charm of the wooden interior and the lovely comfy bedroom and the 2 toilets was a bonus. We were lucky with the weather so spent a lot of time on the outside deck enjoying the uninterrupted view across to the Isle of Wight. Check in was easy and the marina facilities were first class. Would highly recommend for 2 adults or a family of 4.

This yacht is perfect for those looking for something a little unique as I do. the setting is gorgeous and location is perfect if you want go to the beach, get the ferry to Rathlin Island. Their is a Spar very nearby if you need to get those bits and pieces. the host Christopher was very nice and communicated perfectly the time and location to meet. He showed us around and gave us a tour of the yacht and the instructions were clear. We only stayed a night but could easily have stayed for more. Thank you so much Christopher

We had an amazing time renting the yacht in Plymouth – everything was even better than we expected! The hosts were incredibly friendly and always quick to help with any questions or requests we had. The location is perfect, with the Barbican just a few minutes away by ferry. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be coming back again!

We had so much fun exploring Cambridge and Ely from the boat. It is a fantastic way to get to explore the area and have an adventure at the same time. The boat is lovely and was easy enough to navigate after getting a lesson from Gary. We would love to do it again and highly recommend!

Had a lovely stay on the Premier Cru boat. Great location for seeing the city, about a 15 min walk in to the centre of Bath. The location was quiet and the boat was sweet. We enjoyed having a glass of wine in the sunshine "up on deck". Lovely walks nearby. Staff all very helpful. Would definitely stay there again.

Had a fabulous stay at the boat really peaceful and tranquil feels like your really getting away from everything. Luckily the sun shone and we were able to make the most of all the facilities and hope to return again.

I enjoy seeking out unique places to stay with an interesting story. SULA LV14 did not disappoint and our hosts explained the history and workings of the boat with infectious enthusiasm. LV14 is well appointed, careful craftsmanship has made the interesting space with few right angles very comfortable. We were lucky with the weather but I think being on board in a storm would be equally exhilarating! (and safe!) Our hosts provided current information on local activities and gave great recommendations for local independent places to eat. LV14 is in easy walking distance of Gloucester Docks and the Cathedral which are both worth visiting. The private tour of the boat was my highlight and highly recommended.

Spending a couple of days on the Seahorse was a great experience. Pat provided clear and detailed instructions on how to approach the boat and what to do while aboard, which was very helpful. The boat has plenty of space, it felt quite comfortable. Based on the pictures we expected it to be a bit smaller, but we were pleasantly surprised about how roomy the interior actually is. The boat is equipped with everything one could need for everyday tasks, it is well designed for living there even for longer periods of time. We also had a unique and charming view on the river and Kew bridge. There were 4 of us staying on the boat (all adults) and we greatly enjoyed our stay overall. Would highly recommend the experience.

We had a wonderful stay at Mia’s place. Her boat was absolutely beautiful, and the location was fabulous. Mia was very proactive and responsive to all our questions and gave detailed instructions and information about the boat. Staying on a narrow boat might not be for everyone, but if you are interested in trying one out, we highly recommend staying on the Floating Terrarium!

We had a brilliant stay here, my 4 and 6 year old loved it, and we had a great time as a family, and then it was cost as a couple in the living space in the evening. Spotlessly clean and lovely extras like asking which toys and books for the kids. Amazing communication. Super convenient location for chelmsford, Colchester, Maldon, Hylands park.
