3 Bed Dutch Barge in London

Our lovely 1930s Dutch barge is moored in a secure marina 15 minutes walk from Canary Wharf and 2 stops from Tower Bridge.

The Boat

A 90ft, 3 bedroom barge with a fully fitted kitchen and bathroom and an outside deck space.

The master bedroom has a kingsize bed (with a sidecarred cot!) and the smaller rooms have toddler beds (but enough room to put single air beds).

There is a large living area and an additional room that we use as a playroom.

She is on a floating pontoon so no need to worry about tying ropes etc! Because she is so big she is very stable.

Location
We are inside a secure marina with electronic fob only access and nighttime security. The floating pontoons are non slip and marina is very well looked after.

Limehouse DLR station is a 2 minute walk and from there you can be at Tower Bridge or Bank in 5 minutes (both 2 stops).

Canary Wharf is a 15 minute walk.

The clipper pier is also 15 minute walk with fast boats to Greenwich, London Bridge, the London Eye and other notable places.

About Us
We are a family of 5, with the children born in 2010, 2012 and 2015. We do have a small dog but he wouldn’t be part of any swaps.

What we are looking for
Ultimately we are looking for a 3 or 4 week swap with a family in Australia in Feb/Mar 2017.

But in the meantime we would like to do some shorter swaps, closer to home, Europe and the U.K. to ease us into the idea of entrusting our home.

We are open to pretty much anything!
