    What a unique experience staying on a boat on the river. Absolutely magnificent. Quiet, peaceful, relaxing and calm. Visited by the black swans, ducks, swallows and jumping fish. Sitting in the cool breeze looking out over the river was wonderful.

    The location is spectacular, as it is right on the river at a private jetty. The view from the lounge was of the old wooden boats and the river. Birks Harbour is well equipped, private and the bed was very comfortable. A very welcoming host.

    Great location - right there in the centre with restaurant options and easy access to the Wharf for boat trips. Comfy bed and sofas - very spacious. Lovely garden and somewhere secure to park the car. A lot of care and attention has been given to decorating the house. It is fun and tasteful. Easy access to food and other shopping. Great art gallery across the road.

    Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! A studio situated on an old jetty with water lapping outside. There's a covered outdoor area if you want to sit and enjoy the boats sailing by on the river. A complimentary bottle of bubbles on arrival. Would definitely stay again.

    It was very unique and the boat had a lot of character. Breakfast was provided as a do-it-yourself Breakfast and the view was beautiful. It was very peaceful and the neighboring wetlands are full of wildlife. It was an awesome stay!

    The studio is beautifully located right on the river. It felt like being on a houseboat but without the hassle of driving it, tying up etc. It was clean, compact and very comfortable. A bottle of nice bubbly greeted us on arrival.

    Located on the right on the water, it felt almost like we were in a houseboat. Great views of marina and river front.. Very comfortable bed and accomodation. Tasteful decor. Good a/c and heater. Cute deck for sundowners. Bbq Weber available. We had a very Relaxing stay. Great to have the use of 2 well maintained bikes to ride along the river bike path.
