From the very start to the very end of our trip nothing was ever a problem. Every single person, from boat hire staff to canal staff tending the locks and wheel etc are so chill about everything. We would definitely go back out on a Canal Boat Holiday and we would thoroughly recommend everyone gives it a go.

Went to Warwick and back, lovely mooring sites along the route and great pubs to visit. The teething issues with the boat, possibly due to the quicker than normal turn around due to a lack if communication with the central booking office, did make some moments rather stressful however. Although the heating and water temp were resolved, we still have both toilets display red lights simultaneously within 4.5 days of departure (we don’t believe they were emptied before departure). We had to resolve this issue ourselves and pay for a double pump out. The floor bracket for the interchangeable legs on the galley kitchen is not securely fixed to the floor, and so whenever the table is changed to a hes or via versa the screws need to be reattached. Luckily we had a toolkit!

Thank you for sharing your experience. A canal stoppage prevented the boat from arriving at Aldermaston Wharf, which meant we had to contact you prior to your holiday to arrange an alternative departure from Gayton Marina. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for being so accommodating regarding the change to your booking. We appreciate your patience and understanding while the team at Gayton Marina worked to resolve matters as quickly as possible, including arranging an additional night on board and responding promptly to the heating issues during your trip. We’re pleased to hear that, despite the initial difficulties, you enjoyed your cruise to Warwick, the mooring locations, and the pubs along the route. Thank you again for taking the time to share your feedback. We value your comments and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a much smoother experience in the future. ABC Boat Hire

Really friendly and informative staff - we had little experience and they answered all our questions and made everything super easy. This included walking us through the route we had planned and explaining the various parts of the canal we would come across. The boat was clean and well presented, with everything we needed.
