Your recent holiday on Gull - Pacific Gull from Gailey Wharf

Holiday was excellent as was the boat and all the people we dealt with. The only glitch was that the web form to book the boat broke (crashed if you tried to add a dog to the booking) so I had to do it by phone.

Your recent holiday on Wagtail - Yellow Wagtail from Rugby Wharf

Our first Narrow boat experience was wonderful. Great service when we needed help. Passerby getting involved & he fell in the canal, luckily he got out ok but it will be a good Memory from our weekend

Thank you for the feedback! Passers by are always willing to help but without proper training it can go horribly wrong, best to accept help from the volunteer lock keepers instead! We're really pleased you enjoyed your first canal boat holiday and made some great memories in the process. We look forward to seeing you again.

Your recent holiday on Wye - Gotrik from Worcester

Thoroughly enjoyed our holiday on ABC Boat Gotric. Started well with a friendly handover from the staff and the boat was well presented and stocked. Many thanks the ease of service meant that that side of the holiday went almost un-noticed it was so professionally handled.

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

Fantastic customer service, boat spotlessly clean, tidy and very modern. Could not fault it! There were 8 of us on board, however, due to the size of the boat, we never felt squashed in. All staff extremely friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend to everyone!!!

What a fantastic review, thank you! It's great to hear that you all had an amazing time on our new Warbler Class and would recommend a canal boat holiday to everyone. We hope to see you all again soon.

Your recent holiday on Grebe - Pied Billed Grebe from Gayton

Well appointed and comfortable cabin area. Easy to drive and Judy had lots of lovely people who helped on those harder locks. The trip to Market Harborough was particularly pretty and allowed time for some side excursions. We recommend tying up at Blisworth for the last night. Great village and traditional cosy pub. Even a day standing on deck in teeming rain couldn’t dampen our enthusiasm for this wonderful experience.

What a wonderful time you had on Pied Billed Grebe! Our changeable weather is part of the adventure and it sounds as if you took it in your stride! Thank you for the route recommendation, it's great to be able to advise customers who are going from the same location. We look forward to welcoming you back aboard in the future.

Your recent holiday on Swan - Whistling Swan from Hilperton

A brilliant weekend with my friends. It was a bit daunting the thought of navigating a 70 ft barge, but we all had a go and thoroughly enjoyed it. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good training video recommend watching it before you arrive at the yard. Good technical handover and safety information and instruction in handling the barge. Will go again

Carolyn

Thank you for your great feedback, it sounds as if you had lots of fun! We do recommend that all of our customers watch the Canal & River Trust DVD, read the Boaters Handbook and Holiday Guide before the start of the holiday. We look forward to welcoming you back aboard in the future!

Your recent holiday on Lark - Sky Lark from Falkirk

It was a great, relaxing four days after 3 weeks of sight seeing. The boat was very well stocked! We did have a little trouble finding places wide enough to turn that long boat around! Loved going thru the Falkirk Wheel! The young man helping us thru the Wheel was so nice and polite!

07 Sep 2018

Fantastic, it sounds like you all had a great time exploring Scotland by land and water! We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed going through the Falkirk Wheel and a member of our team helped you. We hope you will be back for another adventure with us again soon!
