For Longer Term: 1 bed Houseboat in London Greater London London England, for rent long term

The Merchant Houseboat

Exuding refinement, style and sophistication inside and out, a very different stay awaits on-board this converted canal boat moored up in the Paddington Basin. It's a premium location in the unique public floating garden, just ten minutes from Little Venice. Back on land, go for a spin on the free-to-use bicycles, exploring nearby Edgware Road and leafy green Hyde Park – under a seven-minute cycle away. When you do return to your luxurious barge, you'll find sleek Scandi interiors with warm reclaimed timber walls. Compact but better equipped than many homes, this houseboat provides the ultimate boutique hotel experience – from the swanky freestanding bathtub to the chic breakfast bar. There are plenty of entertainment options too. Snuggle up with a movie in the cosy (inside) living space – complete with a cleverly positioned projector. Choose a book from the extensive collection – courtesy of independent publishers – and sink back into the egg-shaped swing seat in your unique outside living space (and don't worry, you can purchase all the books on-board if you're a few chapters short). It's the perfect setting for a romantic getaway in the city, with the spectacular rooftop dining area also ideal for entertaining friends and celebrating a special occasion. We absolutely loved it.
*As seen in the photos, the houseboat is situated on the footpath – this houseboat is not suitable for those seeking complete privacy *The barge is in a prominent location and the space outside is public so it could get a lot of attention from passers-by *The houseboat is suited to two guests but an additional two may use the sofa-bed in the living room, although we think it will be a tight squeeze *Due to the prominent location, noise is to be expected – light sleepers may want to pack ear plugs *Two bicycles are available to use free of charge *The shower pressure here isn't the strongest *Depending on preference, you might not find the hot water to be hot enough here
