Your recent holiday on Warbler - Aquatic Warbler from Worcester

A beautiful boat, helpful boatyard and lovely to sail the Droitwich ring in such good weather. Plenty of locks, interesting places and pubs along the way.

Thank you for your lovely review. The Droitwich Ring is a superb short break ring route which we are very lucky to be able to offer from our Worcester Marina. We are really pleased you had such a great holiday, with good weather and we look forward to welcoming you again in the future.

Your recent holiday on Lark - Sky Lark from Falkirk

Excellent experience, but the quality of WiFi was unacceptable. All the time we had to login and enter the password AND our personal details. I cannot figure out why you make it so complicated, To me, it seems sheer stupidity.

Your recent holiday on Warbler - Willow Warbler from Worcester

Everything good with the exception of the showers. Water far too hot, scalding in fact. No instructions on use in the manual. Markings on the shower controls faded almost completely. Control knobs difficult to turn with soapy hands, An accident waiting to happen.

Thank you for your review. The Marina Manager has checked the showers and although the controls are faded, they are working correctly. He has suggested that the showers may have been left on high, after the boat was cleaned from it's previous hire and he apologises for any inconvenience this may have caused. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your holiday overall and we look forward to welcoming you again in the future!

Your recent holiday on Thrush - Olive Thrush from Hilperton

Main issue was our boat.. It leaked badly, was leaking thro prop tube, we are experienced ABC boaters and pumped the bilge but one morning before we knew full extent of issue it was 6 inches over the oil bund, we had to pump for fair while just to stop the Alternator getting wet after that we would pump every hour! This despite regular use of the oiler.. Also I thought prop was clogged with weed as drive was poor. It was clear of weed but it was either fitted back to front or damaged as boat went better backwards than fwd. These issues spoilt the holiday somewhat... Also the water pump was very noisy

Your recent holiday on Lark - Archers Lark from Blackwater Meadow Marina

Well designed modern boat and very clean. Well equipped. The only criticism is the pick times could be earlier and drop off later. I know it is a logistics issue but it means that the trip is effectively 3 days plus a couple of hours.

Excellent experience only lacking by uncomfortable sleeping arrangements

Your recent holiday on Spirit - Lochan Ora from Falkirk

The boat and staff were exceptional however the canal had problems. Water points blocked and few moorings. It’s clear locals don’t like holiday makers and block the facilities.

Your recent holiday on Grebe - Black Necked Grebe from Alvechurch

As we are out for 4 weeks my husband has to have a WI-FI that works with sufficient data. He doesn’t stream or whatever. We would like to be able to pay for what we need. We have been with the same firm 11 times. And are planning our autumnal trip. We have no further complaints 😊

Your recent holiday on Grebe - Slavonian Grebe from Gayton

The boat was OK a bit tatty. Our main complaint is I have 2 sons 16 & 19 who live on their phones and 300gb is not enough data there should be an optional extra of buying extra data e.g. #10 for 2 GB The welcome aboard pack of tea and cups on a tray was not needed an took up a lot of space Marina is very noisy

Helpful and informative, friendly but comprehensive run through of all we need to know the boat. We've used their narrow boats previously.
