Very family friendly property perfect for two family share with just about all games and fun things for kids you could think of. Such a relaxing atmosphere both indoors and outdoors, perfectly clean on arrival. Will certainly visit again
Lovely place to stay. Outdoor areas and pontoon were great. The house was nice on a quiet street. A nice kennel was provided too. Make sure you bring 2 coins as air con is pay as you go and there is no wifi.
Had a enjoyable few nights at boathound.
Yard is as dog proof as they come
House is in a nice quiet location
Having the pontoon just there makes boating a breeze
Kids enjoyed the selection of toys available
Very affordable and easy to book.
We have stayed at Boathound a few times now. We love the convenience of being able to park our boat in the canal. The property is also dog friendly which is a bonus.
Very nice, easy to locate, close to shops and water front. Enjoyed our stay. Caught fish and crabs off the pontoon. The house has everything you need for cooking a great meal, love how there are board games and books.
The property overall was a great stay. The owners were lovely enough to let us check in early after our long trip. Morning coffee out the back near the canal was beautiful. Minior down point the fridge could do with a good clean

Disliked: Listing accuracy
I would like to see a notice to prospective renters at the beginning of the listing regarding the lack of sheets, towels, consumables and WIFI. I would also like to see a cost for sheets and towels if required. Since I am travelling from overseas I don’t really want to bring my linen because it takes up too much space. With regards to the house itself: nice house, quiet location, would work well for people with a boat. Lovely garden. The range hood was very greasy and the hood light didn’t work. The latch to to soap dispenser in the dishwasher is broken, some of your ice cube trays have cracks in them and since you have to pay extra for air con a couple more fans wouldn’t go amiss
Great for large family with children or 2 families. House has everything! Lovely to overlook the canal! Dog friendly backyard. Short drive to beach, shops etc.
