Comfort on the water without the crowds
A very unique accommodation, expertly refurbished from a wartime minesweeper. A good nights sleep for all. A very warm welcome from Brian, nothing too much trouble. For those wanting an escape from technology with all the comfort of a boutique hotel

A floating gem!!
What a wonderful experience! Staying on the Ocean Mist was a truly memorable experience. I loved all the little quirks of the ship and the bar was amazing. Having breakfast outside on the top deck this morning was fabulous! Bed was comfy and the bathroom was modern and beautifully appointed. Everyone on the staff was so lovely too. I’ll be back!

Simply stunning!!
What a place! We didn't know what to expect but it blew our expectations. The room and the whole ship is simply stunning, the bed was super comfortable and the rain shower was amazing. The decor around the ship is all top end and gives the feeling of luxury, the staff in their maritime uniforms are all really friendly. We have already recommended this family and friends and on our next trip to Edinburgh we will be booking again without hesitation!
