Absolutely loved the boat house. Entry instructions were easily described, the house was immaculate, and the views were amazing! This was a very last minute booking and we didn't arrive til late but the hosts were more than happy to reply to any messages promptly.

We loved the quirky quaint boathouse. It was super clean & and the bed was very comfy. We decided it was such a great space we didn't want to leave to eat a meal,so we went and bought fresh salmon and potatoes. However, we had a bit of trouble turning on the hotplate. Some instructions would have been good. We finally got it sorted and enjoyed a beautiful meal with a couple of wines. Very relaxing space.

We needed a fishing rod.

"Cosy and Quirky"

8.0

Cute, cosy and quirky accommodation. It had everything we needed and fresh flowers were a nice touch. Good communication with clear instructions on how to use the door code. The property definitely looks its best at high tide. Convenient central location, easy walk to the Town Basin.

We didn't find it cold as other reviewers have done, but the downside of the central location meant it was quite noisy.

"Fantastic place to stay"

9.0

Amazing place to stay - very central and such a lovely outlook. The unit was comfortable and well appointed and made for a very relaxing stay. Very clean throughout and easy to access. One of my favourite places I have stayed in and I hope to stay again 😊

The living area was a bit cool because of it being a converted boat shed but the bedroom was cosy
