Your recent holiday on Lark - Rudd's Lark from Wrenbury

A great experience from start to finish! The boat was superbly presented and had everything that we required on board. I can’t believe that it’s taken us so long to try a narrowboat holiday and we’ll be back soon.

Your recent holiday on Goose - White Fronted Goose from Hilperton

Then only issue was the K and A canal was packed with live on boats who spoilt the ambience of the canal and made movement very slow as had to be on tick over for so much of the time

Your recent holiday on Sandpiper - Knot Sandpiper from Alvechurch

We were disappointed that we couldn’t plan a route in advance because we were not aware that the farmers locks were closed until we got there which meant we didn’t get to do any locks. We would have done a different route. Had we known at the marina. The boat was lovely, new and well kept and had everything we needed.

There should have been more information at the marina regarding closed locks, especially as we were doing the route with all the closed locks, and we didn’t know till we got to the lock when it was too late! This meant we had to change our route halfway through. A notice board would have sufficed. In respect of the Wi-Fi, we had a reasonable expectation that we would be able to upgrade from the basic free package (which was rubbish) and pay for a better service, but this was not an option. As we do not have UK mobiles, we do not have roaming and therefore really struggled with accessing information on the app for a route, and keeping in touch with our family who were on another boat. Staff were surprised that we needed additional Wi-Fi, but would generally quite helpful.

Your recent holiday on Wren - Canyon Wren from Worcester

Bedding and make up bed mattress needs to be better quality (abed topper would help so the seating buttons that form the make up bed are not felt when sleeping)

Your recent holiday on Wren - Canyon Wren from Worcester

The boats (I have used ABC before) have been of good quality well thought out in terms of utilities and design. They would be even better, scoring a five if the bedding was of better quality, pillows and make up bed mattress in particular.
