Houseboat holiday rentals in Great Britain

The pod was well-located with a great view of the boats in the morning. The pod and bathroom were clean. Great welcome from the hosts. Everything you need in the pod. I would recommend 100%!

Lovely accommodation and really convenient location. Andres was an excellent host, attentive and responsive. Would recommend a stay here.

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

This was a really scenic place at the harbour. Very close to Lymington town centre. The boat is clean and has everything you need for your stay. It can get cold at night during winter. The team were really helpful and responsive

We had a lovely stay. Convenient spot in easy walking distance of the city centre. And the kids had great fun sleeping on a boat!

Another lovely stay. James and the team were as friendly and helpful as ever and I felt right at home. This is perfect for a single person as it's secure and private with a lovely view and the birth holders are friendly. Everything was perfect. Thank you once again.

This is our second time staying. Very nice, soothing, very pretty places.

Hello, We were two adults ans two kids and there was plenty of room to accommodate us 4. We had a great stay and a warm welcome. The location is great in Little Venice. Of course, if you go for this type of accommodation you know it will be somewhat different and exciting and this is exactly what you’ll get. Brushing your teeth with geese and ducks passing by - you can’t beat that.

My partner and I came to stay at this cabin for our anniversary. It was a perfect weekend get-a-away where we enjoyed the countryside. It was secluded and very quiet with the occasional call from a kingfisher. We both loved it and i’m disappointed that we didn’t have the time to look for the white stag in the woodlands near by. Both Tom and Sharon were both very accommodating and we look forward to one day coming back!

Great little place. Beautiful view of the marina. Lovely area. Great for taking the dog for a walk. We hired a boat for the day which was around a 30 second walk from the property. Peppery cosy and warm. Definitely recommend and we will stay again

The water lodges were immaculately clean and very well equipped. The staff were friendly and helpful. Great location and lots to do.

Jenny was a great host! The Cabin was spotless on arrival! Very cosy and well equipped... As previous guests had noted the bed is super comfy!! The outside area for dogs is brilliant. Definitely recommend the Culm Valley Inn! Fantastic atmosphere - delicious home cooked food - 15 min walk. Strand Stores serve an incredible breakfast and sell high quality local produce! We also enjoyed a nice day out at Sidmouth beach..

This place was amazing and exceeded our expectations. They just did everything right. You can tell the hosts have really thought about the big and the little things to make you feel welcome and at rest. I can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you

Wow, excellent surroundings and a warm greeting. Lovely relaxed atmosphere making you feel very comfortable. Good instruction and tour of barge and grounds. Just very enjoyable all round. The only disappointment was that we didnt find it earlier in the year. Will book again.

This was the most wonderful stay, The little boat is fantastic, so well appointed, it’s tranquil, the farm is so quiet and full of wildlife. We felt so welcome and so well looked after. The owners are so friendly They even went out of their way to buy me special food because of my allergies. And the on-site indoor heated swimming pool was such a bonus. To be honest, we just can’t wait to come back - either to the shepherds huts which also looked gorgeous or to Zena the boat. I would recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a deeply relaxing enjoyable experience. The village is a very short drive or a lovely walk away and there’s nice pubs and a few shops. And the beach and surrounding countryside is also lovely. Kingfishers , herons, geese, dogs, baby calves, owls, bunnies, deer, birds of prey and then stargazing From the deck at night by the fire pit - Wonderful!

I was traveling alone and wanted something unique and relaxing to make my trip extra special. This was such an amazing find! It was so nice to lay in bed with the curtains open so I could see the ducks, geese, and even swans swimming past the boat. The claw foot bathtub was a nice way to relax my muscles after spending all day exploring the city. I stayed for just over a week and there was always enough battery stored up to charge all of my devices including my laptop, cell phone, and the extra backup charger I’d take with me on my day trips through town. It is an eco lifestyle so you should listen to the instructions the host gives you to make sure you understand how everything works. It’s well worth it for this extremely beautiful and unique experience. The host, Martin responds quickly and was so kind to assist me with some special requests. I will be suggesting him to anyone I know who travels to London and I hope to get to stay on his lovely boathouse again in the future.

Beautiful, peaceful place to stay. Close to London transport. Would love to come back in summer! Thank you!

A really special place with a lovely hostess! Thanks Steph , we will be back! X

We absolutely loved our stay, it was such a fun alternative to stay in regular apartment and we really enjoyed exploring the area. Great location, easy to find. Mia also left lots of helpful instructions on how to use everything and was very communicative. hopefully we’ll be back again one day

A fantastic spacious houseboat, perfect for our short family mini break with teenagers - could have happily stayed longer.

Everything was perfect. The house boat was really comfortable, fully equipped and beautifully decorated. The setting was tranquil and serene and positioned in the heart of nature surrounded by bird song, geese, herons. Just stunning!

A delightfully unique & interesting home. Who would have thought a houseboat could be so spacious & comfortable. Exceptionally well equipped with meticulous attention to detail. Julia has preserved many original features & her own artwork adorns the walls. Loved it ❤️

Here for 6 nights, the boat exceeded our expectations, overwhelmed by the size and space, nice to be able to unpack few clothes out of our suitcases that we had been living out of for 4weeks, so close to central city, and Limehouse rail, easy walking distance to canary for great shopping and restaurants, we will be back! Thanks Rebecca

Beautiful houseboat. Beautiful surroundings. Amazing location. Spotlessly clean & welcoming. Felt right at home. Nothing was too much trouble for Phoebe, she ordered helium balloons and made a personalised sign for my partner’s birthday. Will definitely be returning!
