There is a great children’s playground nearby and shops and restaurants are all a short walking distance.
Please note- the max head height inside Rhubarb is 6’3” and the beds are small doubles.

Rhubarb sits on mud flats and the river is tidal so the water is not always around the boat. When the tides are up, over 6m above sea level, Rhubarb will float for 1.5 hours then sit back in the mud. Message me if you would like to know what the tides are doing for dates you are interested in.
We are ok with dogs but would ask you to message us first.
Rhubarb is perfect for families with children but we ask you to be mindful on the boat and around the mooring.
Rhubarb is not big enough for a travel cot.
