Your recent holiday on Grebe - Slavonian Grebe from Gayton

We were slightly disappointed with our hire boat layout which made movement more difficult than on other boats we have hired over 20 years - we especially prefer the dining/kitchen area at the front of the boat not at the stern

Your recent holiday on Thrush - Veery Thrush from Aldermaston Wharf

It would have been very useful to be advised of the winding holes sufficiently large for such a long boat. Otherwise instructions were good

Your recent holiday on Warbler - Dartford Warbler from Blackwater Meadow Marina

Everything from start to finish about this holiday was fantastic, booking it, the boat was spotless & well equipped, staff at the marina were very friendly & helpful, the itinerary for our trip was spot on too. We will definitely use ABC & can’t recommend them enough.

Your recent holiday on Gull - Silver Gull from Rugby Wharf

Our holiday was great. The Oxford Canal is an excellent place to spend a week. Lovely scenery and countryside, enough locks to make the journey interesting, canal side pubs and restaurants, villages to visit. The boat was adequate enough not to spoil it.

Your recent holiday on Lark - Black Lark from Worcester

Great holiday on a fantastic boat. The staff were great and helped us get away quickly, and the boat was very comfortable and clean. ABC made a big effort to keep everything "Covid-secure" which was much appreciated.

Your recent holiday on Thrush - Dusky Thrush from Anderton

We expected a super clean boat due to covid19 but was disappointed particularly by the mould in the salad box in the fridge. We should also have been warned about the fact the toilets had not been pumped out as 2 hours into our holiday the red light came on .

Your recent holiday on Nene - Oscar from Gailey Wharf

Our little "Oscar" was very clean and exactly as we expected. All the staff at Gailey Marina were very proficient, friendly and welcoming. They greeted us like old friends as we have holidayed from there twice before

Your recent holiday on Duck - Long Tailed Duck from Whitchurch Marina

Boat was immaculate, staff were welcoming, instructions were sufficient, there was everything on the boat we needed. Only comments were water filling hose was pathetic, plastic reel holder fell to pieces- very minor problem The back of the boat for steering got slippery when wet, we did have green eyed envy at boats with rubber on. Fantastic holiday
