Your recent holiday on Thrush - Whites Thrush from Alvechurch

Excellent boat and equally fantastic staff from our initial arrival at the marina to the guys who prepare the boats and walk you through the boats features.

Your recent holiday on Thrush - Dusky Thrush from Anderton

Even though this trip was at the end of a very busy season, the boat was prepared for our trip on time. We did have two minor problems with the boat but the mechanics were able to get us running again with very little down time. We have used ABC for several other holidays and all have been great.

Your recent holiday on Warbler - Willow Warbler from Worcester

The boat was a good clean condition and in very good working order. Kate was helpful at pick up and provided all the info needed even though the river conditions were closed and the canal routes were temperamental at the time due to rainfall. Stuart also provided a beneficial handover and covered everything we needed at our level of experience.

Thank you for the lovely feedback about our team at Worcester. As the marina is located so near to the River Severn marina staff will advise guests on whether it can be navigated during their holiday and offer other routes options if it is closed. We are delighted you enjoyed your holiday on Willow Warbler and hope to see you again soon!

Your recent holiday on Medway - Elnar from Rugby Wharf

We loved our week on Elner but we felt the she is tired and old compared to Snow Bunting we hired last year. She lacked basic equipment. Ie decent size pans, non stick frying pan, decent can opener We felt the amount of internet allowance, included in the hire price, is inadequate seeing the barge is for up to six adults on the boat.

Your recent holiday on Eagle - Bonellis Eagle from Gayton

The over all experience was good, the boat had few issues there were a couple of lights not working, we had a coolant leak and noisy drive, it did not affect our holiday untowardly. but that's why the 3 stars

Your recent holiday on Warbler - Lucy's Warbler from Whitchurch Marina

Great boat and Marina. Can’t say the same for the marina we called into at Ellsmere. An ABC marina with little interest in a pump out for us. Also, no information on the size of winding holes, which is critical when hiring a 69ft boat and you need to plan a return to the marina within the stated time

Thank you for your feedback. Generally turning points and route timings are discussed during the boat handover but we do also advise customers to purchase a map/guide to help them to plan ahead. We are disappointed to hear that you felt our marina was not interested in helping you with a pump out and your comments have been forwarded to them. We are pleased you were impressed with our Warbler Class and the service you received from Whitchurch Marina and we hope to welcome you back again soon!

Your recent holiday on Goose - Red Breasted Goose from Alvechurch

We had problems with the boat engine. There were one or two things that needed attention. Missing wooden edging strip on edge of bed. Missing hook on back door of boat. Broken umbrella. (it would not stay up)
