The owners were very welcoming and the boat was a lovely experience that we hope to repeat in the near future. Breakfast was delicious and served with a happy smile.

Feel of the Med on the Medway 😎
What a treat staying on a boat! Well worth it. So glad we chose this place. At a marina so a little out of the way. Lovely food at The White Horse Borstal. Hope to return. Need to have reasonable mobility because of steps and hill up to the pub.
Jeremy and family were great hosts. We hope to return soon. Thanks for your hospitality. The breakfast was superb.

Außergewöhnlich, mal was anderes...
Eine Nacht auf dem Schiff im Hafen ist mal was anderes. Zwei Zimmer stehen zur Buchung zur Verfügung, davon ein Familienzimmer mit einem Hochbett. Zimmer und Bad sind liebevoll eingerichtet. Frühstück gibt es unter Deck, im warmen Sommer sicherlich auch auf Deck. Gastgeben leben selbst auf dem Schiff und sind sehr freundlich und nett. Gesicherter Parkplatz auf dem Hafengelände ist fussläufig zu erreichen. Der Ort Rochester ist per zu Fuß oder per Auto (schneller) zu erreichen. Gerne wieder...

Unique & Great Location!
We had a warm welcome from the moment that we got there. The room was so bright with windows/doors down to sides of the room. All that yoj would need. A lovely sun deck to to relax on and enjoy the late summer sun.
Location for Rochester City center & surrounding area was spot on.
In the morning the continental breakfast was really good to start the day.

Simply beautiful, as a native to the area and someone who has worked in multiple hotels in the area I have to say that this was a refreshing surprise and the entire family enjoyed their stay. From the unique setting to the warm hospitality shown by the owners, not to mention the amazing breakfast, it was a beautiful stay in a beautiful setting with comfort to equal the views. We cannot wait to come back again!

Beautiful find. Very impressed, everything was perfect. The room was amazing, especially waking up to the views in the sunshine. Everything we needed and the room was spotless. All the little details have been thought of. The breakfast was yummy and the owners very friendly. We even had a text the evening we arrived asking us what time we would like breakfast and the options available. Such a lovely personal touch. Will definitely go back and recommend to others.

Lovely accommodation. Very lovely hosts. Very good breakfast . Comfy bed. Unfortunately close to M2 bridge and rail line. Relaxing with constant back ground noise . And i would say not in a marina more a boat yard. Not a problem for us but need to be aware very steep stairs to upper deck.
