"Very enjoyable. Would recommend."

Lots of character, homely. Nice touches. The log fire a highlight.

Minor criticism was that the bedding felt a tad damp.

Ideal location close to town centre restaurants an pubs host was good with communication easy check in everything there that was needed tea an coffee supplied bread butter an jams iceland an Tesco close by nice thick bedding heating supplied water was very hot

Be wary what side of trinity road u park as restrictions are different on both sides bed uncomfortable could be quite noisy late at night due to people walking by but you expect this on a weekend an was woken first night by a drunken person banging on window but overall good stay

It’s so cosy! Didn’t expect the bed to be comfy but it was! Nice place!

May be a little table at the back will be really helpful.

It's a lovely little boat with everything you need. It's close to the town centre but far enough away to be quiet. Michael was a great host, providing good information before we arrived and responding to messages quickly. If you've never been caravaning or camping, it may not be for you. Remember, it's not connected to mains sewage, but all these facilities were manageable. The shower was lovely and hot. Considering its location, it was great value for money. It was a really novel experience, which we all enjoyed. We would definitely use again. Thank you 😀.

Parking was a bit of a pain moving between different restrictions, but Michael did offer us a spot on his drive, which is a short walk away..it was just our car was too long 🤦‍♀️. On our last day we realised that we could move our car from Trinity Road to the right hand side (as you drive down back towards the boat) of Queen Street and then it could stay there until 9am the following morning or moved back to Trinity Road where you could park until 10am.

Location was nice, lovely boat very cosy

There was a horrendous stench of faeces from the moment we opened the door it didn't look like it had been cleaned properly the smell was so bad we had to buy airfreshners have doors and window open all night and we did not want to use the toilet
