So don't take our word for it, see what thousands of our customers are saying about us!
Enjoyable holiday. The boat was fully prepared when we got to the yard, and ready to go. Everything worked. The staff were friendly and helpful. The handover was comparatively quick, and we were able to set off in good time. The boat (Rock Dove) was not new, so there was evidence of normal wear and tear around the boat. There were a number of battle-scars, especially on the starboard side of the hull left by previous hirers, but this did not affect our holiday. We completed the Avon Ring in one week without any issues.

The Springwood Haven Marina is staffed by some very pleasant and helpful people. We had a most enjoyable weekend on our narrowboat.

Timely service and helpful staff made for a great experience. Need a plug filter on the bathroom basin as a previous guest had left an empty shower bottle blocking the u-bend! Otherwise, all was good as gold.

Our boat was comfortable and clean on the inside and well maintained on the outside.The staff were friendly and helpful before arrival and when we collected the boat. We will certainly be going with ABC again.

Our first holiday on a canal boat and had a jolly good time. Boat was lovely and very clean, it’s amazing how they get everything you need onboard. Staff were very friendly and helpful and contactable throughout our holiday. The only negative was the ‘free’ WI-FI. Yes it is free but very limited! The code has limited time and although when we rang they gave us a new code it is only intended for a brief looks at your phone. I had taken my laptop to enable us to watch Sky on the Go. You can’t do anything like this and the TV ariel signal is obviously poor due to area you are in. This was a shame as after some busy days, we had 122 locks on our trip, to sit and watch some telly would have been nice. Definitely something that needs pointing out to people as if you state free Wi-Fi people now expect there to be constant access. I ran out of my allocated data but there were places where you couldn’t get 4G so communication would be impossible.

Fun but check how many locks are on your trip 😃

The Coventry and Ashby Canals proved to be very pleasant, and where we went it was all lock free which was a bonus.

The run of locks at Caen Hill and at Barh tend to limit distances travelled unless one wants to push it. But visiting both and enjoying the lovely country and wildlife in between made for a very relaxing week.
