The Boatman's
Reading Rooms
Reading Rooms
A sanctuary between the sunshine and the deep blue sea
By the Seaside
With eye-stretching views over Deal Beach to the sea, The Boatman’s Reading Rooms is a charming, spacious yet cosy escape, thoughtfully restored and redesigned by Quince to bathe you in sunlight by day. At night, turn to bubble-bathing under the stars outside in your own secluded copper bathtub.
Relaxation awaits.

The Finer Details
The Boatman’s Reading rooms sleep 10 guests (and a hound too) in four stylish bedrooms, with only comfort and the sound of the sea as easy bed fellows. Simply relax knowing the mattresses are the highest spec, made in Ipswich, and mattress toppers are layered above.
The custom-made-for-foodies kitchen is a veritable gourmet’s galley, and today’s modern Reading Rooms will surprise you with quirky Quince touches of love throughout. How about an outdoor copper bathtub for star-bathing, a sun terrace for sunbathing, or Nicholas Nickleby’s prose on the walls?
And when laid-back, low-impact living is just as important for you, we encourage leaving the cars in your carport and venturing out by foot.

Local Treasure Map
From the comfort of your window seat at The Boatman's Reading Rooms, you can gaze upon the fishing boats and beach huts, enjoy the brass band playing in the Victorian bandstand, watch the kids play on the lawn outside… or simply meditate upon the hypnotic meeting of the North Sea and the English Channel.
Just a few steps from the enchanting view, you can stroll down the wide promenade to experience the age-old culture of local life in the quintessentially English town of Deal. It is one of the quirkiest, coolest beach towns on the UK’s South East Coast. Vintage stores, fishmongers and indie shops make their home in pastel-coloured Georgian buildings by the sea. And for a spot of exercise, walk, cycle or jog to the fine Tudor defences of Deal Castle, built by Henry VIII.
