Lucy Carter
This place is really special, perfect for unwinding and spotting wildlife. It’s a great spot to start walks from the boathouseand Richmond and Barnard Castle are just a quick drive away. We’d love to come back!
Emma
We had a lovely few days here, waking up to ducks and swans was so charming. The boathouse might be cosy, but it had everything we needed and was spotless. The location is perfect-super peaceful and relaxing. The surprise prosecco and biscuits upon arrival were a nice touch! We enjoyed the hot tub, even if it took a while to warm up, totally worth it.
Emma
We had a fantastic time at the Boathouse! It’s well equipped and really comfy, making it easy to settle in. The welcome pack was a lovely surpriseand the call before our stay was thoughtful. We loved the little visits from ducks and swans - it felt so peaceful. The Angel Inn nearby served some of the best meals we’ve had in agesand Richmond’s just a short drive with loads of shops and eateries. We’d definitely stay again - already thinking about it! Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway.
