Our houseboat is called Gra, which is Irish for Love. It is a beautiful new barge and your oasis of calm amidst the hustle and bustle of Central London. Gra is located in a gated marina between the City of London and Canary Wharf making it the ideal location to explore the sights of London.
With its luxurious fit out and the latest in modern facilities, Gra is the perfect choice for the discerning traveller when visiting London.
The position of Gra is ideal for exploring London. You are just 300 metres from the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) which will take you into the heart of London or east towards Canary Wharf and Greenwich. On board we have a full guide of all of the local attractions to help you decide how to spend your day. There are also a number of excellent restaurants and pubs nearby which should cater for everyones taste. A 2 minute walk away is the Limehouse PUREGYM for those fancying a workout. Daily passes can be purchased. There are many pleasant walks in the area and the stroll down to Canary Wharf along by the river is particularly pleasant.
Hello, I am looking forward to welcoming you to our beautiful boat and I am sure you will have an amazing time in London. We have furnished Gra to provide you with everything you need for a restful and relaxing holiday or business trip in the heart of a major city
WELCOME TO LIMEHOUSE - A SHORT HISTORY
Limehouse is a historic district located in London's East End, nestled along the River Thames. Its history dates back to the 14th century when it was primarily an agricultural area known for lime kilns and brickmaking, giving the neighborhood its name. Over the centuries, Limehouse has evolved and witnessed numerous transformations.
In the 18th century, Limehouse gained prominence as a bustling port, connecting London to the global trade network. The docks facilitated the arrival of goods, spices, and exotic items from distant lands, contributing to the area's multicultural character.
In the 19th century, Limehouse became synonymous with the opium dens and vice portrayed in various literary works. Author Charles Dickens often mentioned Limehouse in his writings, adding to its notoriety. However, the neighborhood also attracted literary figures who were drawn to its unique atmosphere. Arthur Conan Doyle's fictional detective Sherlock Holmes even visited Limehouse in "The Sign of the Four.”
