Anna’s houseboat was such an amazing experience. I’d never stayed on a canal boat before so it was great to embrace the lifestyle, and her boat was the perfect place to do so. The decor was lovely and it felt very peaceful. The location of the boat when I stayed was absolutely perfect, it was very easy to access tube stations and to travel around London, whilst also having the ability to stay local as there where plenty of shops and restaurants by the location.
Anna’s boat is very economical, which is great to see. Personally, the toilet was something I struggled to adapt to. There is no flush system installed, instead you are expected to use cardboard and empty the bag from the toilet after a few uses. Although it was something I didn’t love, it really wasn’t that inconvenient and in wants to help the environment, it wasn’t that bad at all!
The heat was also something I struggled with, but it’s understandable that Anna couldn’t do much about that, apart from maybe having a couple more fans on the boat. Although it was very clear that the boat was perfect for the winter and cold weather as there where plenty of heaters around!
Overall, an amazing stay and experience. Staying at Anna’s boat has definitely made house boats an interest of mine and I’d love to stay again. I really couldn’t recommend it enough. Thank you Anna! :)
