You like unique accommodation? Look no further! We stayed on a lifeboat for a night in Ocean Village, Southampton, U.K.! This is a reconditioned RNLI Rig Lifeboat used on an actual North Sea rig! How cool is that?! It’s moored here in Southampton opposite the 5 star Harbour Hotel and Spa. The big questions you probably have are 1) is it claustrophobic 2) is it stable 3) can you wee wee and poo poo 4) is there a shower 5) will you get a good night’s sleep 6) what’s the location like 7) is there parking 8) are there restaurants and bars nearby 9) is it near the cruise terminals 10) is there any storage space? Well, I’m going to answer all of these questions and more, plus we check out dinner, drinks and breakfast at the Harbour Hotel too. So, strap in and let’s get to the rescue!
