    I stayed in the canal boat for two night with my two kids. I can honestly say it was their favourite part about our trip to london. The boat is done up really nicely, it has everything you could need. The instructions given by the owners were spot...

    What a wonderfully unique experience, so glad to have the opportunity. The location is nice and quiet, for city life. The boat was everything you could expect and ask for in a canal boat.

Property information

Our canal boat is ideal for a couple, family or group of friends visiting London to see its most famous landmarks. It offers a bright open-plan kitchen and lounge, full bathroom, cosy double bedroom and extra double-bed to comfortably sleep 4 adults. The boat's stern has an open-air deck allowing for early sunrise breakfasts or relaxing dinners under the stars - or lets guests have a relaxing cup of tea whilst watching ducks and swans feeding in the canal. The boat moors on the Grand Union canal near Little Venice and the short route to her exact Google PIN location along the easy-to-access towpath will be provided after booking. And if the weather plays its part, we might be able to provide a 1 hour private tour via the bird sanctuary island, narrowboat village, Regent's Park, London Zoo into Camden market. The eco-centric canal boat runs on solar power with brand new energy-efficient powerbanks available for full electricity to charge all your phones, laptops and bright LED lights throughout the boat. We think you'll find staying on our canal boat a more interesting and unusual experience than a standard hotel room or apartment - our boat has what you need for a memorable break in central London!

Neighbourhood information

Little Venice, with its beautiful canals and waterways, can be found just to the north of Paddington. Positioned where the Grand Union and Regent’s canals meet, this picturesque neighbourhood is home to quirky waterside cafes, cosy pubs and charming restaurants. From canal boat rides to puppet shows, there are plenty of things to do in this charming London area. Things to do in Little Venice: Explore atmospheric Regent’s Canal, which starts from Little Venice and ends in the Docklands, passing the likes of ZSL London Zoo and Camden Town. Walk downstream past the elegant Regency streets of Maida Vale and on to Regent’s Park and Camden, or follow this peaceful corridor upstream to the west and enjoy the tranquility of the canals.

Little Venice also boasts some of the most interesting independent theatre venues in London. Catch award-winning fringe and comedy from the candlelit tables of the Canal Café Theatre, or enjoy a show at the Puppet Theatre Barge, a real theatre on a canal boat. For free entertainment in the summer months, head to nearby Sheldon Square’s amphitheatre which puts on a series of events.

Here, there’s the chance to learn about the history of cricket during a tour of the famous ground and its museum.
