"This is an old boat. It is heated by a wood /coal burner only. The electrics are complicated and were not always on. It is an old cafe and has not really been turned into a house boat fully. It could have been cleaned better and communications were difficult. Our check in was delayed by half an hour. The owner slept in a separate area on the same boat."

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (1 review)
"We had a wonderful stay on this beautiful and cozy narrowboat. If you like a little bit of glamping and adventure combined with staying in Central London we would definitely recommend this lovely restored narrowboat. The boat is on a relatively quiet but vibrant location on Regent’s Canal and in the middle of the trendy area around Stone Coal Yard and Kings Cross station with beautiful shops, galleries and restaurants. We would also recommend to take a walk or bike along Regent’s canal to Camden...
