2 Bedroom Boat Rental in Limehouse, London

Live London differently.
The houseboat is a unique place to stay in London, just down the River Thames from Tower Bridge and the Tower of London and just 5 minutes’ walk from Limehouse DLR station which means that all London landmarks are right on your doorstep. It is designed with every comfort in mind, including super fast Wifi, smart TV with content streaming services, extra comfortable beds with mattress toppers, feather down pillows and top quality linen. A freestanding bath and separate shower in the luxuriously appointed bathroom complete an experience which you and your guests will not forget. There are radiators throughout the boat making this a cosy and comfortable home all year round.
The space
You enter the boat at the stern (back) where you’ll find seating for 6-8 people around a wooden semi-circular table and comfortable semi-circular bench seating with soft cushions. Outlook across Limehouse Marina from all aspects. There is an infra-red lamp hanging above the table which provides both light in the evening and heat for those cooler days and nights, making this covered area useable all year round.
You then step down into a large open plan living space. Here you will find a comfortable corner sofa facing a wall mounted 43” smart TV with content streaming services available, supported by the super fast Wifi. In this space there is also a small library with an excellent cross-section of books for those lazier days on board. Just to one side there is a desk and chair for anyone who needs to work from home while on board.
Beyond this is an amazing kitchen and eating space, incorporating a very large marble-topped island (with sink and breakfast bar and four stools). This is a state of the art kitchen which any chef will be happy to work from, which includes a wine fridge, dishwasher, washer/dryer, integrated oven/microwave/grill, large fridge and separate freezer. Every possible piece of kitchen equipment is included to allow you to prepare meals on board or simply to be confident of your wine being chilled at exactly the right temperature.
The corridor leading off the open plan living area is lined with artwork from around the world. The first room you come to is the smaller second bedroom with a luxurious double bed, guaranteeing the most comfortable night’s sleep. All linen, towels, pillows and duvets are of the very highest standard. This bedroom has an open wardrobe with hanging and storage space for your clothes.
The next door leads to the very well appointed bathroom. There is a freestanding bath, separate shower unit with a rainforest shower head, basin, and WC. Grey slate flooring completes the room.
There is a connecting door from the bathroom into the main bedroom, passing through a dressing room area with plenty of hanging space and drawer space for all of your clothing and other personal items. The main bedroom itself feels indulgent and spacious. The king size bed is supremely comfortable with top quality mattress topper and a beautiful deep green velvet headboard. There are beautiful original paintings hanging on the walls and double doors give out onto a very private patio space at the bow (front) of the boat, complete with planting, two comfortable seats and a small table for your morning cup of coffee or evening drink. The space (and all windows down one side of the boat) offer spectacular views across the marina, looking west towards the setting sun.
The mooring position of this boat is without doubt the most favourable in the whole of the marina, totally private and offering a quiet hideaway in this global city, yet within easy reach of all London’s tourist attractions.

Summary: The location is absolutely stunning for a unique experience to recommend to friends. The communication was fantastic. The property was beautiful…I wish my own home was as comfortable! It is in a great location, with the DLR line very close by, giving access to so much of London. There were several fun pubs and restaurants easily within walking distance. When we were tired of touring, need to relax was met with beautiful relaxation places on the boat and a Tesco Express close by for food. We had never stayed on a boat before, so our host gave us the grand tour and made sure that we had perfect instructions. The amenities were easy to use. The beds were comfortable. We were in a very safe location with only a bit of city noise. We could hear the ducks, geese and paddlers go by, making the water experience beautiful. Communication and directions were perfect. We felt a part of the neighborhood with the information. I highly recommend this as a place to be if visiting London. I am so thankful that we were able to stay here. It made it special.

Summary: A perfect respite after a busy day. The houseboat exceeded expectations from a comfortable bed and large bath in quiet harbor with peaceful river view. Everything from communications and check in was seamless and easy. Pam was great in meeting us and making sure we would have a great stay for our anniversary. Traveling into the city using the DLR and Tubes was quick and easy. We loved sitting on the bow with a wine or beer and people/dog/duck watching at the end of the day.

Summary: Excellent place to stay. Two minute walk to DLR. Boat was clean and modern with everything you need. James was a great host.
Lesley K. May 22, 2025 11:39:06 AM
Summary: Calm, clean and comfortable, our stay on this lovely canal boat was all we hoped it would be.Five minutes walk to the light rail, close to Canary wharf shops and restaurants, ten minutes to the Tower of London and Bridge. Delightful boat to return to after a busy day in London.

Summary: Our family loved it! We had never stayed on a houseboat but it was a wonderful experience. Pam was super helpful and explained everything. The location was perfect to get to all the tourist locations because it is a short walk to the DLR and a bus stop. Being parents with two young kids, we loved having the amazing kitchen for breakfast before heading out for the day, and space to hang out after the kids went to bed each night. The host was very responsive and helpful. Overall excellence getaway spot! We would stay here again!

Summary: The boat provided us with a very comfortable base from which our group of two couples in their 60s could explore Central London and the Abba arena. The fully equiped kitchen and cozy lounge was a very welcome place to relax and socialise. The vicinity of the LDR made our journeys simpke and quick

Summary: My friend and I stayed on the boat for a girls trip. It was perfect. Spacious, clean, and cute. The neighborhood felt very safe and it was a quick walk to the train station as well as some great food options. It was so nice to just sit on the front of the boat and watch the ducks and swans.

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful houseboat. Check in with Pam was easy and she gave us all the informatiin we needed and could not have been more helpful. The boat was very clean extremely comfortable beds, very warm and well stocked with everything we needed. The Limehouse Basin Areaa was lovely and well served by the DLR which was only a 5-10 min stroll away. We loved everything about our stay here andvwould highly recommend it. We were sorry to leave.scrupulous

Summary: Even better than described and pictured! James was so helpful and patient and an excellent host. Luxury linens, comfy furniture, and a view that can’t be beat. The surrounding area is a bit busy but we experienced nothing but peace and quiet during our stay. Very convenient location for Uber rides, too! We hope to have the chance to return.
