Your recent holiday on Swift - African Swift from Hilperton

Everything went without a hitch. Even the weather played its part. Stunning route from Hilperton via BRadford upon Avon and Bath to Bristol. Very few locks and esay pace each day there and back in a week.

Your recent holiday on Swallow - Red Chested Swallow from Goytre Wharf

I'm not sure why ABC operate here. The canal is shallow, the boat and beds were too narrow, there are few views as the canal is bordered by trees and there are few facilities (eg pubs) on the canal, the boat was hard to manoeuvre, often lacked power and went aground easily. The briefing was very good and the boat was clean. However when we could have switched boats when a fallen tree blocked the canal the manager inexplicably wouldn't allow this which held us up for most of a day. I couldn't recommend this trip.

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the Brecon & Monmouthshire canal it can be shallow at times because there is no river feeding the canal. We do rely on rain to maintain this but we are very lucky that the majority of the season is ok. We do actively advertise this to our customers to make them aware before they travel/book. The boat that was moored up on the other side of the fallen tree was booked and paid for by other guests and we cannot allow another party to take over another boat until it has been checked over by the staff back at the marina. We appreciate this was a frustrating time but the Canal & River Trust did their upmost to make sure the tree was removed as quickly as possible.
