When we aren't on the high seas or chilling on retreat, we offer B&B on board as well as pop up events. If you wonder what that might be like here is what some of our guests wrote last year, and yes we are rather proud and flattered by the feedback!

“Qiao and Paul are fantastic hosts which spend the whole year on their beautifully and self-renovated bark. Qiao responded quickly to my requests and they were very accommodating since we checked-in later than originally expected. They served fantastic breakfast with self-made bread and local food and we a also had the chance to have a brillant dinner with them. The ‚Snark‘ is beautifully renovated with a large dining room. Our ‚cabin‘ was not really spacious (well that’s how it is on a boat) but we worked it out with the 4 of us. We enjoyed the time on the Snark very much and we would definitely recommend to stay with Qiao and Paul. It‘s great experience with great people.”

“We spent an exciting night on the sailing boat Snark. When we arrived at the boatyard (FULL ADDRESS in sat nav will get you there, postcode alone will take you elsewhere) we turned the corner and our eyes fell upon the imposing mast and folded sails which dominated the creek. The weather was wild and choppy on the Dart estuary so there was a change of plan and we boarded the boat in a small beautiful creek alongside the boatyard. That was preferable to us. The boat interior is the handy work of a pair of architects, Qiao and Paul... beautifully designed in pale wood with white interior, uncluttered and spacious. The photos don't do it justice. Plenty of room in the cabin though the mattresses were firm. One of the group slept in a hammock in the communal room and it was made private by a curtain. Before dinner, we enjoyed a bottle of bubbly on the deck in the evening sun. Paul cooked us all a full English breakfast in the galley, accommodating our every need. A wonderful finish to a memorable trip.”

“We’d been left in a spot of bother when our boat needed some fixing.....what better place to stay than Qiao and Paul’s fantastic ‘Pirate Ship’!! My two children were very excited at this turn of events! (Although,slightly disappointed we didn’t see any actual pirates!!) Qiao and Paul are absolutely fantastic hosts,very friendly. We loved hearing about how you have transformed the amazing barge. The barge really has more wow factor than you can see from the pictures. The beds are a really good size-the four of us slept very well. Breakfast was such a lovely touch too. Really delicious. Unfortunately,we weren’t really onboard to enjoy all of the yoga or relaxation that can be offered but if you are then you’ll be in for a total treat I’m sure! Good luck with everything guys and thanks again. Jo,David,Kitty&Hugo.”
