"We had a wonderful stay on this beautiful and cozy narrowboat. If you like a little bit of glamping and adventure combined with staying in Central London we would definitely recommend this lovely restored narrowboat. The boat is on a relatively quiet but vibrant location on Regent’s Canal and in the middle of the trendy area around Stone Coal Yard and Kings Cross station with beautiful shops, galleries and restaurants. We would also recommend to take a walk or bike along Regent’s canal to Camden...
