About this property
Tulana Taggs, floating home & hot tub on idyllic island-Hampton Court & Richmond
Relax in this unusual setting of a floating home on the inner lagoon of Taggs Island situated on the river Thames, close to Hampton Court Palace, Richmond & Kingston. Tulana offers guests a singular experience of living in urban nature in London. The name Tulana originates from the Zulu word 'Thula', meaning be at peace, be still.
A brand-new floating home completed June 2022 as featured on Channel 4's 'My Floating Home' in August 2023. Come and slow down at Tulana, immerse yourself in a bit of luxury on the water and enjoy the best of both worlds - London sights and communing with nature.
