What an amazing place. Sue & Bob were so friendly and hospitable. The place was spotless, the room was comfortable and the view was stunning. The full English breakfast was the best I've had. Thank you! I can't wait to return.

Everything was good, the place brought back memories of cruising on the Rhine and Moselle in the 1950s. The place was spotless, and the owners' attitude was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was first class, so our visit to the annual Sweeps' Festival in Rochester was greatly enhanced. Thankyou Bob and Sue.

A novel and lovely venue for a B and B. We visited Rochester for one night to visit the Sweeps festival. We had a very nicely decorated and comfortable cabin. We slept well and enjoyed our full English breakfast in the morning... thank you!

We were made very welcome and introduced to Bob and Sue's visiting family. We had chosen the lilac room with the private deck. Room was lovely and gives you the happy choice of privacy or enjoying Bob and Sue's company in the welcoming large open kitchen, lounge and dining room. Breakfast great and cooked to order. Looking for a reason... More

I stayed here with my daughter on a road trip and it was by far her favourite place. The quirkiness of staying on a boat for the evening really added to the experience. And nothing beats watching the sun set over water which was our early evening view. Our hosts were really welcoming meeting us in the car park on... More

Bob and Sue welcomed us as if we were old friends with a lovely cuppa and chat before we went to our room. Comfy clean and with lovely view. Breakfast the following morning was excellent and a laugh as we met with other guests and joined in the banter. Already looking forward to our visit in July. Thanks

A wonderful experience staying on a boat. Cold out side, snowing in fact. Warm inside with a lovely welcoming hot coffee. Then shown to a lovely cabin clean nicely decorated and warm, every thing you could want. breakfast was tasty. We had a lovely stay.

It was exciting and unusual to spend a night on a boat B & B, especially one that was going to float on the high tide. Fortunately I chanced to wake at 3am to look out of the riverside window and get the full benefit. Breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious. Spicy mushrooms. Yum! Sue and Bob are very friendly...
