So don't take our word for it, see what over 10,000 of our customers are saying about us!
The whole 2 weeks went off extremely smoothly - extra linen was provided as we changed people after week one. The kitchen equipment provided covered all our needs (not always so with self catering accommodation for 6 or more. All the ABC staff and the Canal volunteers we encountered were friendly and helpful. Would certainly recommend hiring a canal boat to others - although not the cheapest of holiday options.

Good engine, disappointed with interior. Kitchen doors sticky, little space for provisions. We had a problem with gas supply, bottles did not automatically change when one finished, had yo call engineer out to fix problem. Something was sticking to due change in pressure.

Everything went like clockwork. Smooth handover and good instructions. Boat lovely and clean. Everything and more you needed for a 3 night stay. Thinking of buying my own barge I enjoyed the experience so much.

The boat was ready when we arrived, we were met by friendly and helpful staff. The boat was very clean and well equipped and we simply enjoyed all aspects of the trip to Newbury and back.

Boat had a permanent list to port and the fresh water taken on board in my opinion did not correlate with usage. In other words more was taken on board than used. EG. Fill up at Dnston and again at Avon cliff!

Nicely equipped comfortable boat with a good shower, but central heating worked only intermittently and there was toilet smell in the kitchen particularly around the fridge.

Really helpful right from the booking process to the pickup and the drop off, we did have to call on the engineer but he was with us in 20 mins of the call, issue sorted and we were on our way. We had a great week and would thoroughly recommend both a canal holiday and ABC.
