Excellent service and boat. Boat well thought out inside, everything to hand, loads of storage space. Bathroom superb, hot water came through quickly. Super comfy beds. Couldn’t have wished for a better boat, spotlessly clean, a real home from home

Thank you so much for your fantastic feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you found the boat so thoughtfully designed and comfortable—especially the bathroom and beds! It’s wonderful to know it felt like a home from home and that everything was spotlessly clean. We’re sorry to hear the canal water levels affected your route, but we’re glad the boat and service still made for a great experience. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another adventure—hopefully with smoother cruising ahead! ABC Boat Hire
