So don't take our word for it, see what thousands of our customers are saying about us!
Simple and quick pickup of the boat, everything was ready for us. Simple return process at the end of the holiday. Boat was well-appointed and comfortable.

Unfortunately the Bevere Lock on the River Severn was being repaired, so we couldn't do the trip we actually planned. Instead we went from Worcester to Ladywood on the Droitwich canal, and back again.

The boat was ok but compared to our other boat (we had 2 on hire) it was poorly designed inside. There was an infuriating fixed tv cabinet that was in the way of the dining table which was cramped as it was for 6, let alone 8! Also the water pump was horrendously noisy & located somewhere within this lounge which doubled up as a bedroom, our shipmate there was not happy!

The boat was well presented and the handover was efficient and appropriate to the experience of the crew. Denise and the team were very welcoming.

The staff at Falkirk were friendly and very helpful, and also accommodating to our requests. The boat was clean, comfy and had no faults whilst we were on board. It also had excellent heating - essential for a wet and windy Scottish October.

Boat was exactly as described and in good condition. Went to Tamworth and back in a relaxed weekend. Friendly lock keepers.

Tha Kennet & Avon Canal seems poorly look after, with very few places suitable to moor, and in Reading it seems as if they don't want boaters, the moorings were not signposted, and there wasn't that many, all of which you had to pay for.

the weather was against us - but we had a wonderful, relaxing time. We arrived late and everyone was helpful and accommodated us. Recommend you try this type of holiday if you haven't before is relaxing and calming.

Lovely boat, very comfortable

The welcome was fantastic, as friendly & welcoming as an be. We were though not expecting a rip off £25 fee for a pass to enable us to use the locks. What’s the alternative if we don’t pay it, stay put at Falkirk! This should obviously be included in the hire as it’s a necessity. A lot like the fuel ⛽️. However I understand the current climate so can excuse a fuel surcharge. The lock pass charge is simply unacceptable.

Friendly and helpful staff

The service was fine, they were helpful and friendly, but the boat didn't seem to be to their usual standard, which we did tell them when handing the boat back.
