Your recent holiday on Thrush - Whites Thrush from Alvechurch

Probably the most enjoyable family holiday that I have had for a vey long time. An amazing experience from start to finish It was a learning experience for the 4 of us and everybody mucked in and had a go. At times it was hilarious and the rest was pure adventure The team at ABC was also amazing in helping us on our way If you want family fun and something different but not difficult then hire a canal boat

Your recent holiday on Thrush - Hermit Thrush from Wrenbury

Found kitchen layout and storage a bit awkward. Dark and hard to find things in the corner cupboard. Couldn't find a dustpan and brush. Boat was really clean and welcoming.

This was the second year my partner and I had hired a boat from ABC, and based on our experience last year 2 friends joined this year and a great time was had by all. We particularly like the layout of the boats with the galley at the rear of the boat,
