Your recent holiday on Eagle - Tawny Eagle from Blackwater Meadow Marina

On my way up to Whitchurch by train, I received a call to say that the boat we were booked on had a terminal fault and was out of service. We were offered two alternatives one of them was the Tawny Eagle, which meant we had to go to Ellesmere. Honestly, the level of professionalism and comfort in dealing with this was fantastic. Tawny Eagle was bigger than what we booked, very spacious, easy to handle. The taxi journey from Whitchurch to Ellesmere was covered and return was covered by them. We needed to find 10 hours extra sailing time over the week which we did with 6:30 and 7am starts meaning we avoided traffic. Ellesmere was lovely, especially the walk Black Water lake which we did on the last day. We truly made the most of the failure and we had an absolutely fantastic trip

Your recent holiday on Owl - Long Eared Owl from Gayton

The boat was adequate getting slightly on the older side compared to what we have had in the past, but saying that still clean and tidy and had all you need, more than a lot of hire boats. The main issue we had was the hot water tap in the kitchen did not work so had to keep boiling the kettle to wash up. But the actual holiday brilliant as usual roll on next year.
