Boat vacation rentals in South London

Our family of 3 loved staying in the houseboat. It was a great hideaway in the middle of the city. The boat was even larger than we expected and very comfortable.

After a pint of local beer on one of the earliest pubs in London, walk yourself to a the pier and board a XIX century clipper full of history and old boats and let yourself go in a night sleep, dreaming of the adventures you might get on a ship like this in a a past maybe not too long ago...the ultimate Thames experience!

Angel and Thomas are wonderful hosts. They made us a delicious breakfast, helped us out with tips about food and how to spend our time in the area. And of course the boat is amazing and very cozy!

Booked for working in area so great fun

The Velvet Morning was a slice of heaven. Sam was an incredible host. Had a great last night of my trip to London here! First, Sam was very flexible with me and allowed me to drop my luggage off early (which was very helpful). I loved meeting her & truly believe she’s one of the most lovely people I’ve ever met. The boat was amazing - so much character, so charming, and super cozy. During the day, I read a book & journaled on the roof, fed the ducks quartered grapes (which they really enjoyed), ate caviar & oysters at the Summerhouse while watching newborn ducklings in their nest peeking out from under the restaurant (showing the post card of the boat got me a discount), and exploring various walking paths nearby. At night, it was sprinkling & the sound of the rain on the roof was so peaceful - I fell asleep like a baby. Would highly recommend this unique stay & definitely plan on coming back next time I visit! Thank you, Sam!

Nancy, I had the best birthday on your beautiful boat. It was cosy and homely. What a wonderful location too; with Broadway Market on the doorstep with amazing food from all over the world. Couldn't of asked for me. After a little hiccup finding the boat, you were so responsive and helpful. Thank you for making my birthday so special. Hope to stay again soon x

Had the most amazing experience on The Tiny Boat House! Was made super comfortable by Ted, had everything we could have needed, loads of fire wood and he even pre lit the fire for use 30 mins before we arrived. The space was clean and tidy, placed in a peaceful location. Would recommend to anyone.

We had a lovely stay on the barge—everything was peaceful and beautifully maintained. The host was friendly and quick to respond to any questions, which made our experience even more enjoyable. We’d happily stay again!

The Boat is very lovely and clean. I immediately felt cozy and at home. The owner met up with us at the marina and showed us everything we needed to know. As a plus, there are two keys. I would love to stay again!

I truly enjoyed staying aboard Dana- it was a real pleasure and I was very sad to leave. Even at 6 ft 4 in (1.9M) tall, I fit in the shower no problem, which is quite an accomplishment in general, not to mention on a boat. The galley was better appointed than most Airbnb kitchens on land, and though the docks are very quiet, there are plenty of good restaurants, pubs, and attractions in the neighborhood. Tower Hill is a very convenient tube stop. I found it to be a very charming vessel that really felt like home - I came alone on business, but really hope that I will be able to bring my family back. You definitely feel that many good memories have been made here and that it is well-loved and well cared for.

We spent the weekend on Harry's houseboat and collected wonderful memories. The place is very charming and has everything one needs for a good stay. We loved the experience itself and ultimately found it comfortable, plus, we enjoyed the surroundings, where there's a lot to explore. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking something off the beaten path! Harry is a great host and the communication was very friendly and easy.

Saul and Sarah's barge 'Flicka' is a fantastic place to stay in London, with the ferry to Central London right on the doorstep and the best way to travel and see the sights at the same time. Saul and Sarah are awesome hosts and wonderful chefs - the private dining experience they cooked and served for us on New Years Eve was truly amazing. A totally fabulous and unique experience!

Great location and a unique experience! Had a very enjoyable time staying on the barge. Easy to find, very clean and comfortable. Host was very responsive to all our questions. We would definitely stay again!
