About this property

A private, green and peaceful retreat on the waterway, hidden away in Central London with easy access public transport. A BBQ, hammock and a little rowboat are available in good weather.
We aim to provide everything to make your stay original, cosy and relaxing. This is a comfortable, secluded retreat on the canal, with easy access to the city's lively neighbourhoods. We offer complete privacy with a locked gatehouse, no overlooking boats and no public access to the mooring: it's an oasis of nature, luminosity and calm right in the heart of the city.
With shops, restaurants and local transport close by at Kings Cross and Islington, this fully-equipped widebeam houseboat has everything you'll need to discover life on the water and enjoy an original stay in London!

Houseboat in Central London - What an Experience

Living on a houseboat is an experience in itself, but to also combine it with being in Central London - FANTASTIC. The owners are fantastic. All communication accurate and complete. They were also very supportive in showing us all the ins and outs of living on a houseboat. The accommodations were perfect for our family of 3. Spacious and comfortable. All amenities typical of an hotel stay were supplied and more! Additional kitchen and food supplies were provided, which is great for that first day there, not knowing the area and grocery stores. The location is quiet and secure, yet just a 10-15 minutes walk to Kings Cross. Great Location
