Experience life below decks - sleep on board HMS Belfast in her restored 1950s messdecks!

Kip in a Ship

Schools and youth groups of up to 50 children can now sleepover for up to 3 nights in unique, stimulating and affordable accommodation - right in the heart of London.

Children will sleep in a real sailor's bunk, complete with lockers, showers and separate cabins for the accompanying adults. These original messdecks provide a fantastic setting for groups of children aged 8 upwards to experience a day and night in the life of a sailor. An ideal base from which to visit Imperial War Museum London and Churchill Museum and Cabinet War Rooms.
