2BR Heated Yacht, Lymington Centre, Beautiful View

PennyRating, 5 stars6 days ago
We had a great stay on Sea-E-O, very well equipped and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. The beds were super comfortable! A lovely location to sit out on deck and watch the world go by (just a boat every now and again!). I can imagine going back in the summer, with a book and glass of something cold in hand! A short walk into lymington which is lovely, great places to eat, a lovely market and the kids enjoyed crab fishing on the quay. We throughly enjoyed our weekend away - thank you!

floating cabin I'm not a morning person 4–6 people

EmmanuelRating, 5 stars5 months ago
An enchanting family stay! Observing wild animals in the morning mist was a magical moment, especially for our child who keeps stars full of their eyes. The cabin is a haven of peace, like hanging out of time, ideal for relaxing. With walks, bike paths a stone's throw away, and sightseeing spots just minutes away, the location is perfect for combining nature and discovery. We'll be happy to go back!

Tulana Taggs - floating home on idyllic island

HayleyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
It was far beyond my expectations in terms of the pure love and given within, as well as Linda's kindness and love in person. I can't wait to return and truly didn't want it to end. Linda was by far the best host I've so far experienced, as well as her beloved Mark taking us on a river boat ride with all it's history, I would life to be able to do it all again for longer than our 2 days. Thank you Linda for allowing us into your stunning floating home, it was magical and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting such peace and beauty all round 🥰

Counting Sheep - Zena the boat

SuzanneRating, 5 stars7 months ago
This was the most wonderful stay, The little boat is fantastic, so well appointed, it’s tranquil, the farm is so quiet and full of wildlife. We felt so welcome and so well looked after. The owners are so friendly They even went out of their way to buy me special food because of my allergies. And the on-site indoor heated swimming pool was such a bonus. To be honest, we just can’t wait to come back - either to the shepherds huts which also looked gorgeous or to Zena the boat. I would recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a deeply relaxing enjoyable experience. The village is a very short drive or a lovely walk away and there’s nice pubs and a few shops. And the beach and surrounding countryside is also lovely. Kingfishers , herons, geese, dogs, baby calves, owls, bunnies, deer, birds of prey and then stargazing From the deck at night by the fire pit - Wonderful!

Comfy bedroom in a quirky houseboat

KatherineRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Gail and Dave were excellent and went above and beyond to look after me. The bed was very comfortable, they provided me with everything I needed to cook my dinner, and helped me to wash and dry my clothes within the night. I would highly recommend this Airbnb for anyone wanting to stay in the area.

Tamanzi Taggs-floating home on idyllic island

RebeccaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Tamanzi Taggs is a delightful floating home, tucked away in the lagoon on Tagg’s Island. Stylish, spacious, luxurious, peaceful - and, well, just perfect. Sumptuous, one-of-kind decor; a huge comfortable bed; a film-star bathroom stocked with heavenly potions - we fell in love immediately. All the mod cons are there too, Sky Glass (plus associated streaming services), super fast WiFi, Bluetooth speakers, sophisticated lighting - I could go on… Our host, Linda, along with lovely Captain Mark, made sure that every little detail was provided to make our stay memorable. Excellent communication, a warm and friendly welcome, plus so many extras to delight any guest. Cava in the fridge, bread baking in the bread maker, delicious nibbles everywhere! Do not miss the opportunity to relax in the wood-fired hot tub, communing with the stars and the wildlife. What more could you ask for?

Inspiring Views & Place With Free Parking By Beach

NtandoRating, 5 stars6 days ago
On arrival it was from “Wow to omg it’s so pretty.” I personally think the pictures don’t do the place justice. My girlfriend and I had a great time, the hospitality from Pam and Stacey were just to notch. There was loads to do, we went on a boat trip tour in Torquay and it was amazing just learning about the history. Plenty of restaurants to eat from and as you know, nothing beats fresh chips and fish, crab and prawn linguine and mackerel, a walk by the sea and we finished our night off with a bit of dancing at The Mermaid. Everyone we met from the time of our stay was very welcoming and friendly and we felt right at home. Thank you ever so much for such an awesome place and experience. Loved the flowers, cupcakes and pink is my girlfriend’s favourite colour. Thank you Pam and Stacey for always being there, your kindness and support.

Everything was designed to have a pleasant weekend, and the sun was out! A big thank you to Laurence for her friendly welcome… I recommend this exotic place nestled along a bucolic bank along a walk we took to walk around … a little hello to the little chicken of water and its huge eggs!!!!

Dutch barge captain's accommodation.

MicheleRating, 5 stars7 months ago
This was a very special place to stay. We felt privileged to have access to this wonderful barge. It was so peaceful, sitting in the wheelhouse watching the tide come in and go out bringing an ever changing array of bird life in its wake. The place was clean and the bed very comfortable. Julian and his partner were friendly, helpful, inventive and creative. They gave us the information we needed, allowed us to come earlier than stated and although we shared the barge, it didn’t feel that way as our part was completely separate and private. We would love to stay again.

Had the most stunning stay at the wonderful heron pod, the perfect place for pure relaxation, with everything you need. Hosts were amazing at responding with local recommendations! The downloadable guide and video of the pod made our stay such an ease, with all our questions answered. Make sure to order some of the homemade granola which was waiting for us with fresh yogurt, berries and a bottle on arrival! We will definitely be back. Thank you so much!

Beautiful unusual place that met our expectations. we had the impression of a night sleeping in the open sea. The roof top is really very nice for an aperitif with a view to the coast. Excellent equipment and perfect communication with the concierge.
