Brunel Boathouse
My wife and I enjoyed our stay here it was very relaxing and the locals made us feel welcome at the local watering hole. If i could just say the boathouse could do with a couple of pint glasses as we had nothing to put our beer in. That was our only complaint but is was just a minor complaint. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you.

Position perfect
A beautiful little property positioned perfectly for exploring both near and far. Access to major roads was easy for whichever direction we chose to go. Bus stop at the door for anything close, including the city centre. Hosts were terrific, after a little problem at the very start of our stay. Problem was fixed quickly with supreme good grace and humour.

Brunel bridge review
Great stay. Lovely little touches left by the host e.g milk, croissants etc. Really nice Boathouse and nice and clean. Ideal location for visiting Cornwall as just over the bridge. Lovely views. Not far from pub if you fancy a quick pint. Totally recommend. Stayed for four nights and was perfect. Definitely be back.

Short stay in Plymouth
Thoroughly enjoyed our experience at the Boathouse. This property is nestled under two bridges joining Devon and Cornwall. The view was fantastic. We had a lovely stroll over the Tamar Bridge to Saltash and had a glorious view of the Tamar River and Brunel Railway Bridge.

Lovely property in an amazing setting
We had a great stay at Elaine's property and she was very friendly and informative. It was my 50th birthday whilst we visited and she left me a card and cake, there was also a delicious box of fudge 😋 I would highly recommend staying at this property to anyone I know and hopefully stay there again ourselves in the future 😀

Unusual and interesting little Boathouse
We had a lovely relaxing stay in The dog-friendly Boathouse, which included our own dog Teddy, and which is beside the River Tamar in an interesting position right beneath the Tamar Bridge. No problems BUT I would say that if you are OLD people like us, (in our seventies and a bit creaky) there are lots of (steep) stairs which we had difficulty on. I would have liked to have seen a schematic drawing of The Boathouse before visiting; similar to what you get with a caravan. Of course, the local roads are very steep for walking too, but I was already aware from Google Maps of that. I enjoyed their choice of art on the walls but perhaps a little shelf on the wall in the bathroom might have helped. Perhaps I took too many toiletries ! Also, a 2-way light to go up to bed in the roof, then turn it off from upstairs. I used a torch. The hosts were both friendly, and interesting and helpful and when the shower power tripped out, about 7:30 in the morning I phoned their mobile number and it was sorted within 2 minutes. There are plenty of facilities in The Boathouse, including local information, soap and a lovely box of local fudge. There is a really fantastic view sitting on the balcony. It was spectacular, and you can watch the boats on the river. Teddy spent his time often on the fluffy royal blue mat beside the balcony glass doors. I'd recommend the Boathouse to anyone and I'd love to visit again.

Beautiful spot on the river with lovely pub just a short walk
Had a lovely time at Brunel Boat House. Lovely views and pub a short walk away It was a shame you couldn’t walk far along the river although you could explore Saltash over the bridge but we didn’t get round to it. We did get a bus to Plymouth waterfront to have a look round But otherwise took the car to the coast or Tamar Valley for a bit of walking. Shame we didn’t get the train to Looe which would have been nice but we had to return home early So although it was a lovely area we did do a lot of driving about

Thanks very much for your lovely review and glad you enjoyed your stay. A shame you didn't get to travel by train from the local station to explore some of the attractions nearby but hopefully you can stay again to do this :)

A Hidden Gem
Great little apartment, very clean, with everything you needed to make your stay comfortable and safe. My husband and I had a house emergency and had to move out for a week. Hosts were friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend!
