Not easy access so decided not to stay there.
Should have said not suitable for older people due to bad access onto boat. Too easy to slip and fall in River.

My partner and I stayed for 4 nights and had an amazing chilled time, It's a very quiet spot and great views of the river, old mill and character buildings. Upon arrival check in was smooth along with a complimentary bottle of wine which was a nice touch and went down a treat, also Jessie was superb with his communication and made things clear as daylight. The boat itself was lovely and genuinely sad to leave.
Having to leave after such a great stay, but we will be returning soon.

quirky , peaceful and beautiful view .
just the small space of sleeping but that was my preference rather than anything wrong with the boat .

Loved my stay on board - it was something different. Peaceful location yet close to the town centre and wonderful waking up on the water. The boatyard it's located in is keypad entry, which as a lady on her own made me feel very safe. Was well stocked with things like fruit and jams etc and a mini bar, for which there's an honesty jar. Found this very handy.
Nothing really!

very cosey and comfy with nice little added extras
there was a very strong smell of diesel in the sleeping area, and the way on to the boat was a bit tricky

Peaceful location with magnificent views, yet only a short walk into the historic Cinque Port town of Sandwich. Lots of lovely bars, cafes and restaurants. A great little hideaway one can escape to.
Will be back again!
Loved everything!

Incredible boat full of quirky touches. Roberts radio, crystal decanters full of spirits, fresh fruit, tea, coffee and soft drinks, complimentary bottles of wine and port, jams and marmalades…the list goes on! And all with the compliments of the owner. Unbelievably hospitable host. Clean and tidy accommodation and very comfortable. Didn’t want to leave!
Nothing to dislike. First class experience.

Location is great, lots of places to visit and discover.
I should have checked beforehand that a 6 feet 4 inches tall man would actually fit on the vessel!

The location was quiet, the facilities were comfortable, plenty of information from owner, although couldn’t find the cabin lights in the kitchen area, even though the switches labled as such.
Could be mistaken but the camper van parked near the boat the majority of the evening were the owners observing us, felt uneasy with this.
8.0 / 10.0
Terrific location, really quiet and peaceful, despite being close to town centre. Easy to access. Owner was very easy to contact and happy to help. Very central for pubs, restaurants and cafes. Central to lots of attractions.
Didn’t realise there was no hot water on board. Being a boat, you can’t use the toilet for ‘solids’. Were told there was a public toilet and shower close by but this is only open 9am - 8pm. Wasn’t told there is a toilet on site, another owner told us. Boat needs a little TLC, one of the bedrooms seems to have a small damp issue.

wonderful location on the riverside within 3 minute walk of the bridge over to the town of Sandwich. peaceful with lots of bird life and water traffic to watch. Very comfortable bed and seats, kitchen with cooking facilities, helpful and informative owners, very unusual let and all the better for that.

A really quirky place to stay and so relaxing to be on the river. And the marina community were just the nicest, friendly people.
It wouldn’t suit anyone with mobility issues (not a problem in our case, but just worth a mention here)
5.0 / 10.0
The setting is peaceful and watching the sun set over the river from the small deck was wonderful.
Jessie was very quick to respond when I contacted him with a query about the boat's facilities.
He was also flexible with our check out time which was much appreciated.
Little extras like drinks and snacks with an honesty box were a welcoming touch.
The boat was not clean. I understand it's a boat not a hotel, but many surfaces were dirty, including the toilet and washbasin area.
The cabin I slept in smelled so strongly of fuel I had to move out and sleep on the bench in the main living area.

Location great, Boat had everything you needed
Access getting onto boat ok for us but if your mobility wasn’t so good could be a problem

It was a great experience staying on a sailing boat and we enjoyed our short stay with our small dog. There are some nice touches on-board and it is fascinating to see the clever, efficient design. It was good walking around Sandwich, taking in the architecture and also walking the neighbouring green spaces. It was so peaceful sitting out on the boat watching the water flowing and listening to it's gentle rhythm.
We didn't manage to access the toilets early in the morning but did access fine in the late afternoon.
