So don't take our word for it, see what thousands of our customers are saying about us!
Great service throughout from Whitchurch Marina. Got us on the boat straight away - no waiting for an hour as we have at other boat yards. Boat was very well kitted out, clean and comfortable. Had a couple of technical issues with the boat, one our fault and one not. Both dealt with quickly without fuss or having to sit and wait for someone to come out.

The staff service was very good and helpful and took account of the fact that we are experienced narrowboaters. However we were sent out with one of the sewage tanks almost full. Following instructions from the office we were able to get a pump out at a hire base at Gilwern.

The countryside and the canal itself are very scenic and most enjoyable . The local people are very friendly and helpful. The trip was spoilt however by the awful quality of the old and uncared for boat. Compared to all the other hire craft on the canal your boats are not in the same league but as far as we could ascertain you charge similar weekly hire costs. All the other hire craft were smartly presented whereas your boats had clearly not seen a lick of paint for several years. The boat was not properly ballasted and listed to port making sleeping on the starboard side hazardous. Both myself and my daughter fell out of bed. The front doors did not close tightly together and with a strong head wind this blasted through the gap in the middle. Only corrected by wedging folded newspaper in the gap. The locking system of the boat was crude to say the least, relying for security on a single padlock and a thin rather tatty bracket. There was no way of closing the doors whilst on the boat and being able to re-enter by means of a handle. Extremely inconvenient and resulted in people being stranded outside at both ends of the boat.

The Plover was a great size for the 3 of us. The hand over was great, the ABC guy knew what to talk us through.

The handover was great, the boat was ready early and we got boarded really quickly. Cruising on the canals was a dream.

ABC Boat Hire were fabulous from start to finish. The check in was seamless and the staff so friendly. The boat was immaculate and had everything we could possibly need. The beds were comfy and the shower was hot. We can't fault the boat at all.
