So don't take our word for it, see what thousands of our customers are saying about us!
I have booked with ABC three times and I could not recommend them more highly. Friendly, well informed staff who always engage with you. This time, the temporary closure of locks which meant we could not complete our Cheshire Ring and get the boat back to Anderton on time. Sensible, calm conversations about how to deal with quite complex logistics. Particular shout out to Martin for his management of the situation which meant we enjoyed our holiday to the max even when it went ‘off plan’. And the boat was comfortable and well equipped.

Staff were great and really helpful. The boat though was quite old and everything a bit basic and one or two things not working properly.

Very enjoyable break. Bottom end of the canal from Goytre oing North certainly needs dredging. Noticeable difference in two years since our last visit

Our 2nd visit to Goytre and the Mon-Brec. The layout of the Finch, galley in the stern, is the best so far for us. Boat was clean and everything worked. The batteries held up well overnight and we didn't go to Brecon this time, so our engine running time was less. We spent more time enjoying the local villages and towns.

Good boat, heavy on the steering but coped, some locks were in need of maintenance on the Black Country Ring which was hard going with just two of us.

Our experience of hiring a narrow boat from ABC was very straightforward. It was our first time in a narrow boat and the ABC Team at Alvechurch made the whole experience very relaxed and uncomplicated. The team couldn't do enough to help prepare us for our trip. Likewise, handing the boat back after our adventure was very clear and simple. Thank you very much!

This was a vacaton different from any other we have experienced. In addition to enjoying the scenery and the stops along the way, we met wonderful people, shared great conversation and random dinners with other travelers, and it fortified our commitment to teamwork as a couple and in working with others in navigating the canal and working the locks. We would do it again.
