Your recent holiday on Grebe - Great Crested Grebe from Whitchurch Marina

We travelled on the Llangollen Canal as far as Ellesmere and back, there were plenty of places to stop, lots of lovely walks, especially at Whixall Moors, Colemere, Ellesmere and Whitchurch is a lovely town to visit too.

Your recent holiday on Owl - Short Eared Owl from Whitchurch Marina

Staff, handover and barge was First Class, A1. Staff helped us plan our route and travelling times to get where we wanted to be. Handover was very thorough and I can’t say enough how friendly all the staff at ABC boat hire were. Went above and beyond, even giving our party of 8 a lift into town on our last night after they had finished work

Your recent holiday on Warbler - Pine Warbler from Kings Orchard Marina

Very good trip, only one downside, the locks on the broad canal were very tough to open but we got there!

Your recent holiday on Owl - Short Eared Owl from Whitchurch Marina

Exceptional service from staff who went above and beyond with their service. The boat was immaculately clean and had everything we needed for a large party of 8. Can’t thank ABC Boat Hire enough. Absolute professionalism throughout.

Your recent holiday on Lark - Shore Lark from Aldermaston Wharf

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2nd experience with ABC as we did with our 1st! When we handed back the boat (Shore Lark) based at Aldermasten we gave some verbal feedback to a maintenance man in the office. He was very appreciative and said this was the kind of feedback they found very useful. Namely that despite keeping the engine running for an hour after mooring the battery lost it's charge each night which then tripped the inverter.(the fridge went off about 2 30 each night) Also the TV at the rear of the boat did not work all week despite many attempts. Apart from these frustrations the 4 of us had a great time and look forward to our next canal adventure!

Your recent holiday on Gull - Common Gull from Gailey Wharf

Good communication before the trip. Handover in office was hurried and it was difficult to take in all the information. Handover in boat was not very thorough but we did tell them that we were experienced. The on board manual was excellent.

Your recent holiday on Sandpiper - Green Sandpiper from Falkirk

The boat was good, comfortable and handled well. There were a couple of minor issues - but this did not detract from the experience.

We did the four counties ring and the Anderton boat lift. We enjoyed the wide range of countryside, canal features and interesting towns.
