We recently stayed at Swan House at the Bath Boating Station. It's one of the best places we've ever stayed at. The apartment was stunning and spacious and just all round wonderful. The views from the balcony were beautiful. We loved all of the little touches in the apartment. It had everything we needed and much more. The people were lovely too. I can't recommend this apartment highly enough. We will definitely come back.

Exceptional weekend here for a wedding party! We were incredibly well looked after (huge thanks to Lulu). The accommodation was immaculate, featuring a great shower, comfortable bed, and a perfectly relaxing atmosphere between events. The river and boating experience was a massive highlight. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful day today. The excellent care and attention given to us by Charlee went above and beyond. The boats were clean and in super condition, Charlee made us feel so welcome and looked after, thank you for a brilliant couple of hours on the river! At the end of the day out we had a problem that had nothing to do with the boating station but they helped us out anyway. Totally recommend the Bath boating station .
