Your recent holiday on Nene - Oscar from Gailey Wharf

We had a brilliant four night cruise from Gailey Marina to Stone and back. The staff were really friendly and explained the workings of the boat clearly and comprehensively. On board the boat was well laid out and tidy, with everything we needed. A couple of cushions around the galley seating would have been the icing on the cake. The guide on the website was pretty accurate - how far we could travel etc. Even the poor weather couldn't put us off - we're already thinking about our next holiday!

Very relaxing and well organised trip

Your recent holiday on Dove - Emerald Dove from Gailey Wharf

We had a lovely time, the staff were very friendly and helpful. It would be very difficult for them to improve our experience and would definitely recommend them to anyone else.

Excellent friendly service as always.

Your recent holiday on Gull - Slender Billed Gull from Wrenbury

All the people at ABC were extremely helpful & friendly, also the barge was well equipped & comfortable. Our main recommendation for people taking a 'relaxing' barge holiday would be to not motor for more than 4 hours a day as otherwise you get little 'down-time' to relax. Also to buy the appropriate Pearson's Canal Map as it provides a lot of invaluable information on your route.

Your recent holiday on Sandpiper - Purple Sandpiper from Gayton

I was really pleased with the service we had from ABC. They were great at communications during lockdown, they had a reasonable response to the uncertainty. Transfer of the boat was perfect - and adherence to Covid requirements was great. It was a super fun three nights, with great time on the canals.

Your recent holiday on Plover - Golden Plover from Alvechurch

We had a great time with our three grandsons, it was sufficiently challenging to keep them amused and they thought the narrowboat really cosy.

Your recent holiday on Weaver - Cape Weaver from Wrenbury

Fantastic experience highly recommend

Your recent holiday on Lark - Dusky Lark from Union Wharf

Cleanliness was a big let down, dirty plates, chopping board, crumbs left under the toaster (considering the current situation with COVID, we did expect the cleaning to have been done thoroughly) and the fact that some items were broken. The waterproof coats were Torn or had broken zips so useless and the TV aerial was broken. We had to have the Toilets pumped out after the 2nd day meaning they had obviously not been done before we left. Other than that we all had a lovely holiday, the boat it’s self was lovely and well set out. The showers in the boat are amazing. We would love to do a narrowboat holiday again in the future.
