A unique and stylish getaway, Located in the middle of the Thames, Eel Pie Island, Twickenham, is a relaxed private island only accessible by footbridge. An epicentre of British rock ’n’ roll in the 60s, bands such as The Who, Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd played some of their first gigs; it is now a much more tranquil place, home to numerous artist studios. Easy access to central London but set away where you can't tell you in London
We also reside in the boatyard, sharing the entrance passageway but with separate front doors to ensure your privacy. We're a young family - with two children 7, and 10. We are usually available most evenings to provide any assistance you may need. While we fully respect your privacy and space, rest assured that we're just a knock away should you require anything. Please feel free to reach out to us at any time.
10 min walk to Twickenham Railway Station. Free parking on Sundays. Paid parking every other day
