Everything went efficiently and smoothly. Thanks

Your recent holiday on Thrush - Blue Rock Thrush from Hilperton

Well equipped boat. Only complaint was that the “double” bed was just two seat cushions pushed together, this was very uncomfortable and not conducive to a good nights sleep. Double mattress was what I had expected.

Thank you for your feedback. It would be difficult for us to supply a mattress in the dining area because of the storage space required when it isn't in use. The dinette bed is a combination of the seating area and an additional cushioned section which sits on top of the lowered dining table. If you do decide to take another holiday you may like to consider booking a slightly bigger boat with an extra bedroom. We hope to see you all again soon.

Your recent holiday on Kestrel - American Kestrel from Gailey Wharf

The people were extremely friendly and helpful. The boat was in great shape and very clean. There was no down side. The experience could not have been better. We will be back.

Your recent holiday on Plover - Golden Plover from Alvechurch

didn't like the route,too many locks as we are only 2 people,not enough time to explore the area. I tried to change the base before our holiday because of this but told i may have to pay twice if the holiday couldn't be sold on. We didn't like the steering area ,too constrictive compared to other boats we have had also sink in shower room very slow to empty and no soap dish in shower,if you dropped the soap no room to bend to pick it up,previously had 'hip type base'

Thank you for your feedback. We would always advise customers to read the route information on our website before booking and the Marina information sent to them once they have made a booking to check that they have/are booking a boat from a suitable location. We cannot change a booking without first attempting to re-sell the original hire, which will have been explained to you when you called and is in the terms and conditions of hire. Our Plover Class has a semi-traditional stern, which is more enclosed than the cruiser stern which you have booked previously. We are always happy to advise our customers so please contact us in the Booking Office if you would like any helping choosing your next holiday!

Your recent holiday on Thrush - Whites Thrush from Alvechurch

Probably the most enjoyable family holiday that I have had for a vey long time. An amazing experience from start to finish It was a learning experience for the 4 of us and everybody mucked in and had a go. At times it was hilarious and the rest was pure adventure The team at ABC was also amazing in helping us on our way If you want family fun and something different but not difficult then hire a canal boat

Your recent holiday on Thrush - Hermit Thrush from Wrenbury

Found kitchen layout and storage a bit awkward. Dark and hard to find things in the corner cupboard. Couldn't find a dustpan and brush. Boat was really clean and welcoming.
