"Fab house boat in a great location"

6.0

The boat is so unique and so close to York …everything you need is there

Unfortunately there is a smell of must as soon as you open the door , unfortunately it’s a smell I don’t like and couldn’t get out of my nose … had to wash all my clothes when I got home as everything smelled of must .. and the kitchen sink didn’t drain ..

What a novelty, lovely boat with everything you need at hand.Family loved it even though it was for 1 night. Parking was really easy and a 15 minute walk to York Theatre for pantomime. Really comfortable and after pantomime had a relaxing evening with a drink and a few photos. Would definitely recommend and maybe next year if it's available.

10.0

Luxury accommodation, very well furnished and equipped. Good kitchen, great TV & Wifi. Easy access into York

Only slight issue lack of view of river, especially when wet. Maybe put easy chair in steering room or roof over outside seating area so can watch boats go by.
