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

Just beautiful calm experience for the passengers and challenging for the drivers ( kept them in their toes in a good way) anyone can handle the barge with or without experience.

Your recent holiday on Grebe - Clarks Grebe from Blackwater Meadow Marina

I was disappointed that the fixed double bed did not have a double mattress, but rather two singles put together. The resultant "split" down the centre of the mattress made sleeping uncomfortable. The week was thus hampered by the lack of a good night's sleep.

Thank you for your feedback. Very few of our boats have fixed double beds as we find that our customers like to have the flexibility of different layout options. If you do decide to make another booking then please speak to a member of the booking office team at the time of booking and they can advise you in your choice of boat.

Your recent holiday on Warbler - Grasshopper Warbler from Gayton

Was a great opportunity for an excellent value holiday at way below the price we would expect. The reason - delivering a brand new boat from Alvechurch to Gayton Marina.

Your recent holiday on Owl - Long Eared Owl from Gayton

The wardrobe and under sink cupboard smelt very bad and we couldn’t use them for storage due to the sewage smell. Our assumption was that the pipe work didn’t have a sufficient seal.

Lynda

Thank you for your comments. We will forward these to Gayton Marina for further investigation.
