Stunning houseboat on private mooring in Central London

It was like staying in someone's home. Hosts are very kind people. We had a lovely time. If you need luxury and using chemical toilets bothers you, this stay is not for you. If waking up in a comfortable, convenient, and beautiful location on the water is more important to you, then you will like staying on the Galatee!

Very comfortable, lovely location. Picturesque, quiet, private. Great location and access to central London. Really loved it.

We enjoyed our stay on the canal boat. Simon and Sarah were easy to communicate with and were very accommodating when we needed something. The proximity of the boat was within walking distance to many pubs and restaurants, shops, bus stops, and the Kings Cross/St. Pancras train stations. We felt safe in the neighborhood. If given the chance again, we would definitely stay there.

Our family loved our stay. Such a gem. The home/boat is so close to everything, yet the private mooring with all the trees and vegetation makes you forget your in the city. Loved sitting in the wheel house with our morning coffee watching the city come to life across the canal. Or rest with wine after a busy day. We adored the eclectic and quirky feel of the well lived in and much loved boat. Keep in mind that this is a self contained riverboat and if you’re looking for 5 star Ritz accommodations, this might not be for you. But if you’re looking for a unique experience, comfortable and spacious accommodations provided by lovely down to earth hosts, then I would highly recommend. The 10 min walk along the tow path to Kings cross station was such a great way to start a day of exploring the sites of London. I can’t stress enough how much we loved listening to the birds and rustle of the leaves while watching the activity across the canal and knowing this peaceful oasis was just minutes from everything we needed. Thank you, Sarah and Simon, for sharing your home with us.
