So don't take our word for it, see what thousands of our customers are saying about us!
Not the best starting point to head West. The canal has so many swing bridges and locks that it is hardly worth getting on the boat until you reach Newbury. Beyond Newbury the whole scenery is far better and the locks open up a little bit. The large locks are not very well maintained and don't compare well with others in the Midlands. This is clear when you check the external condition of the boats - severe scratches and beatings all over. The Yard was OK until we had a problem with one toilet - no-one answered the phone or replied to the message I left. It was a good job we had two toilets!

Thank you for your feedback. The route to Newbury is perhaps suited to active parties who enjoy being on and off the boat. Having checked with the marina, they are unaware off any missed calls or messages left by your party during your holiday, had they known you were having issues with one of the toilets they would have come out to look at it. We hope you enjoyed your holiday and we look forward to seeing you again in the future.

The boat was ready early which gave us sufficient time to get to the first pub in time whilst it was still light. Weather was spot, boat didn’t miss a beat and lovely and warm

The cleanliness of the boat was exceptional and the kitchen very well equipped, as usual. The canal was lovely, one of the quietest we've been on and very picturesque. We would definitely like to holiday on this canal again.

We had a fantastic experience, loved every minute, but we did have a problem with weeds, reeds and trees blocking the way. We even had a smashed window due to trying to avoid a fallen tree but there was a falling tree on the opposite side.

Found the kitchen cabinets sticky to touch and needed to be cleaned, cooker was greasy and again had to clean. Television would not work and when we phoned ABC about this said we were to far away for them to come and fix it, ( we were about 25 miles away by the A4 ) Radio would not tune to any station. Instruction booklet for television was for a different television

Das Boot war in gutem Zustand; weniger gut fanden wir es, dass wir mit leerem Tank liegengeblieben sind und deshalb auch die Heizung nicht mehr funktionierte. Gleichfalls negativ bewerten wir den Umstand, dass wir die Kosten des wegen des hohen Wasserverbrauchs der elektrischen Toiletten benötigten vorzeitigen "pump-out" nicht erstattet bekamen, wie es in den letzten 30 Jahren bei allen anderen Bootsvermietern üblich war.
01 Nov 2018
Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Wir haben Ihnen eine E-Mail über eine Rückerstattung der Pumpe geschickt. Wir hoffen, Sie haben Ihren Urlaub genossen und freuen uns auf ein baldiges Wiedersehen.
