The location was so tranquil, the accommodation was absolutely charming and so well throughout. A high quality fit out and couldn't want for more.

What a fantastic find - so idyllic peaceful and beautiful. Cannot fault it at all. The views are stunning, the place so comfortable, cozy and well kitted out, with a kitchenette, mood lighting, air conditioning and surround sound.

That I booked us in on days where high tide happened when we mostly weren't there or we were asleep. That said, we spent a lovely afternoon on the deck with the cosy blankets, enjoying the view when the water came in.

Everything. Communication was friendly and clear, Ark was spotlessly clean, beautiful and unique location. Lovely welcome goodies saw us right for breakfast and more. The Ark is obviously small, but makes great use of what I assume are boat design techniques to save space. Excellent climate control was a bonus.

Wasn’t expecting angle of floor to be affected slightly by the tide being about but wasn’t an issue

Beautiful views, high standard utilities and features within, including built in speakers around bed, LED lights and an amazingly catered vegan breakfast. Really went above and beyond to make sure everything was a great experience. Great value for money.

Everything was great - no concerns whatsoever.

Perfect setting; clean and welcoming property. Loved the extra touch of breakfast items and some bubbles! Great location for walks or just enjoying the view from the decking. The host was super and responded to all queries very quickly. Loved it! Second time back and will be here again later in the year.

Absolutely loved our mini break in this beautiful part of the world. The pod was cozy, spotlessly clean with everything really well thought out. Loved all the little extras esp the bottle of bubbles, thank you. We were also offered early check-in and late checkout with allowed us to enjoy our surroundings for longer.

We liked it all.

The continental breakfast was great and also provided gluten free food as I have coeliac disease. Absolutely loved the location on the marina. There were so many places to visit. We enjoyed many beautiful walks and also had a mooch around Chichester. The cafe at the marina was great. Lovely staff.

Nothing - it was a perfect break.

Really special 2 night stay in the Samphire Pod - a first for us - and one we really enjoyed. Waking up early to see the sun rise was a real bonus. The pod was really well presented and very comfortable - perfect for a couple. Quality throughout and the marina staff were really friendly. Thanks to all for making it such a memorable stay.

Great location, great attention to detail on the Ark. All of the appeal of staying in a marina with none of the inconvenience of staying on a small boat.

parking, such a shame there is not dedicated parking for the ark, car park very small and not always guaranteed a space.

fully equipped, very comfortable, great location

Feeling that I was the only person in the marina at night.

The breakfast was just right. Location great, shame about the weather which didn't enable me to make the most of the Ark
