If you’re seeking a unique way to experience London, look no further. This houseboat is full of charm and boasts an enviable position looking out to Limehouse Marina. It’s just down the Thames from Tower Bridge and the Tower of London, with a DLR station five minutes away so exploring the city is a breeze. While staying on a houseboat may be a little quirky, you won’t sacrifice any home comforts here – there’s a freestanding bathtub to relax in, a cosy lounge, and an ultra-modern kitchen with a marble-topped island. You’ll even have outdoor seating at both the bow and stern.

Local guide
About Stepney
Stepney is a vibrant, easy-going part of East London that will give you a good sense of local, multicultural London life. It's unpretentious and wears its grub on its sleeve, but the area has a real sense of community and there are some real gems here too: the almshouses, the pockets of protected Georgian houses, the wonderful Genesis independent cinema and not forgetting the Stepney City Farm, a must for any groups with young children.
