Boat vacation rentals in English Channel

Overall, everything about the accommodation was a pleasant surprise. Cleanliness, communication, and charm were all as good as it gets, and Joyce was a delightful host. Staying in a boat along with the time spent exploring the canal on foot really made the trip. Thanks!

Wonderful, well equipped and surprisingly spacious. Lovely to stroll along the canal or enjoy nearby Primrose Hill. Andres was very quick to respond. A magical experience.

Thank you Andrew, we loved staying in your quirky Airbnb. The boat was cosy & warm. You were welcoming & knowledgeable. Left the car at the location & got the number 3 bus into Bath for the Christmas markets - fab location. Thank you

Very close to the city center, the accommodation is spacious and pleasant. Jean-Marie is passionate and is a facilitator. I recommend it.

This is the second time we have stayed. Everyone is so helpful and accommodating and we would recommend to anyone. Thank you for a wonderful time.

Very nice boat both outside and inside, ideally moored in the immediate vicinity of essential amenities and free parking. It is very comfortable and well-equipped, nothing was missing. Rose is a particularly charming host, very welcoming and attentive. Her words, rich in local history including family history in line with the decoration and the documents she leaves us at our disposal are a great introduction to discovering Cherbourg and the surrounding area. To conclude: everything was perfect and as described!

Great stay on the time out that we will recommend to all lovers and even others 🙂 Full disconnection for 3 days, a real pleasure. Thank you Agnes for all the information it allowed us to do beautiful hikes and refresh our taste buds. This little moment on the boat made us want to sail....to see... Kenavo

Go with your eyes closed!!! You will be greeted by Sylvie, an extraordinary person:)) The boat is spacious and comfortable. Very well located in Port Louis where people are always ready to chat and have fun with curious tourists. You will have an extraordinary experience on this fabulous ship but with ease. Do not hesitate to have a coffee in the morning at the tobacco bar with views of the port and dinner at the canteen of the sailors' canteen. With a smile you can have a good breakfast at tan Louise's:)) A huge thank you to Thomas and Sylvie who made us dream the space of a weekend 😊

Super welcoming host Perfect for discovering life at the harbor I recommend

We are very well hosted by Luc. Very pleasant stay, total change of scenery. Beautiful walks and beautiful landscapes. i'll go back without sancis. thank you again

Daniel was very nice and available throughout our stay. the listing matches the photos and descriptions.

Simon's welcome was great! He waited for us, guided us, turned on the heater to improve the temperature. The experience lived up to our expectations :) Thanks again!

We had a fantastic time onboard Sea Wolf, we loved the charm of the wooden interior and the lovely comfy bedroom and the 2 toilets was a bonus. We were lucky with the weather so spent a lot of time on the outside deck enjoying the uninterrupted view across to the Isle of Wight. Check in was easy and the marina facilities were first class. Would highly recommend for 2 adults or a family of 4.

We had an amazing time renting the yacht in Plymouth – everything was even better than we expected! The hosts were incredibly friendly and always quick to help with any questions or requests we had. The location is perfect, with the Barbican just a few minutes away by ferry. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be coming back again!

A very atypical, memorable stay, beautiful memories for the children, a very responsive and very accommodating host. A big thank you.

a very good welcome. we will definitely make a reservation. thank you again for the experience

Had a lovely stay on the Premier Cru boat. Great location for seeing the city, about a 15 min walk in to the centre of Bath. The location was quiet and the boat was sweet. We enjoyed having a glass of wine in the sunshine "up on deck". Lovely walks nearby. Staff all very helpful. Would definitely stay there again.

Had a fabulous stay at the boat really peaceful and tranquil feels like your really getting away from everything. Luckily the sun shone and we were able to make the most of all the facilities and hope to return again.

Claire is extremely welcoming and the experience on this lovely boat was very nice ☺️ I recommend!

A lovely stay on board Oyster Fun’d, it was clean, well equipped and very comfortable. We found it very easily with the clear instructions sent and Emma was very welcoming. We enjoyed our weekend very much and even the sun shone for us! The boat is quirky, fun and interesting and a different experience which we loved, we would certainly recommend a stay here, thanks Emma, much appreciated.

great stay on skd! stayed here for the week with my wife and two teenage boys leading up to the london marathon. easy access (walking distance) to tower hill and dlr train line. additional marina bathrooms and showers were well kept and frequently cleaned. secure gate entrance (key fob) to dock. quiet sleep and comfortable bed. sleep areas were tight quarters, but to be expected. would stay again.

Spending a couple of days on the Seahorse was a great experience. Pat provided clear and detailed instructions on how to approach the boat and what to do while aboard, which was very helpful. The boat has plenty of space, it felt quite comfortable. Based on the pictures we expected it to be a bit smaller, but we were pleasantly surprised about how roomy the interior actually is. The boat is equipped with everything one could need for everyday tasks, it is well designed for living there even for longer periods of time. We also had a unique and charming view on the river and Kew bridge. There were 4 of us staying on the boat (all adults) and we greatly enjoyed our stay overall. Would highly recommend the experience.

We had a wonderful stay at Mia’s place. Her boat was absolutely beautiful, and the location was fabulous. Mia was very proactive and responsive to all our questions and gave detailed instructions and information about the boat. Staying on a narrow boat might not be for everyone, but if you are interested in trying one out, we highly recommend staying on the Floating Terrarium!

This was a very special place to stay. We felt privileged to have access to this wonderful barge. It was so peaceful, sitting in the wheelhouse watching the tide come in and go out bringing an ever changing array of bird life in its wake. The place was clean and the bed very comfortable. Julian and his partner were friendly, helpful, inventive and creative. They gave us the information we needed, allowed us to come earlier than stated and although we shared the barge, it didn’t feel that way as our part was completely separate and private. We would love to stay again.
