    Owner was very helpful and dealt with any queries straight away. Very nice and friendly and warned us about a weather warning on one night and how to deal with it. Couldn't fault them. Everything you could need was provided except towels. Managed...

    Great location on the Thames close to all attractions. Lovely boat to stay on. My son absolutely loved it and wanted to come back for another night. Facilities at the Marina are spotless. Would highly recommend.
  • Tanya
