Lovely holiday, great staff. Unfortunately had a mechanical issue with the narrowboat during our holiday, phoned the marina and within 1/2 hour engineer arrived and fixed the problem so minimal disruption to our holiday.

We have used aldermaston wharf on numerous occasions because the staff have always been really kind friendly and helpful,, But I’m afraid to say our last trip on 18th September leaving from aldermaston didn’t have quite the same feel, We didn’t receive a very warm welcome by the lady in reception and I’m sorry to say I found her quite rude.. we had a lovely time as we always do, Then just as we were coming through the lock at 9.08 am On Monday morning she rang my mobile, she instantly said where were we! Not we hope you’ve had a nice time.. This upset me as we had to wait for other people to come through the lock too and i will say this spoilt our trip as I was instantly cross.. Sadly we will now look at another narrow boat company to use or not leave from aldermaston.. Kind regards Lisa hedges

We had a lovely week on The Black headed Bunting. A totally different experience for us. Some wonderful moments and some tough ones as we were learning the ropes Everyone was so helpful to us novices. A friendly community . Didn't find too many nice places to Moor up but we managed By the end of the week we were all 3 of us looking forward to a comfy bed and bath! We saw lots of Herons close up and nothing better than gliding along on a sunny day in peaceful moments. We were 3 adults so storage a bit tight and space, especially when bed is down in the dining area but we were on a boat so didn't expect it to be spacious. Our single beds at the front were a bit small and draughty as doors had gaps around them. We liked Llangollen and loved going over the Aqueduct. Beautiful views. On way back we stopped at a dear little pop up teashop canalside for tea and cake, which was a nice treat. On last night we ate at The Horse and Jockey pub, really nice and good food. All in all a great adventure for us and one we'd like to repeat at a later date. Thankyou

Good boat, beautiful locations and great weather made this a memorable holiday. However, it was somewhat marred by the incident at Tweeton Lock which left us stranded on the western side of Bath for the second half of the week. Also, it would have been good to have had more information from you on navigating the stretch from Keynsham into Bristol, which is different from the canal in terms of availability of moorings etc.

There were a few things about the boat which were not quite right or problematical.
