How many 5 star hotels have you stayed in? Yes, us too, and now we've added the Jessie as our first "5 star long-boat" stay. This experience, not to be missed, includes quiet (in the middle of London!), endless walks along the peaceful, history-filled British canals, ducks, swans and geese right outside our window,easy access to anywhere, challenging yourself to a different way of living, and best of all, meeting your host Meg.

Meg met us when we arrived and shared with us how to run a long boat (57 feet of boat) which fortunately for us and any other boat in the area we were not allowed to drive. Her knowledge of the area, London in general and the historic canal system used for centuries to transport goods from the north of England into the heart of London.

We loved our stay and look forward to the time we can return.
