Your recent holiday on Wren - Marsh Wren from Hilperton

Great holiday, but having never been on a barge before didn't realise how cramped they were.

Thank you for your feedback. Our boats are narrow, perhaps you could try a widebeam next time? We hope to welcome you back aboard in the future!

Your recent holiday on Gull - Silver Gull from Rugby Wharf

Veldig artig å lære seg å mestre en så lang båt, selv om vi bare var ute i tre dager. Flott måte å feriere på, aktiv ferie!

Your recent holiday on Gosling - UW Gosling from Union Wharf

Would have been 5 stars but the design of the 4 stern bunks was very restricted and only really suitable for small to medium children. Everything else was fine

Your recent holiday on Warbler - Barred Warbler from Alvechurch

Really enjoyed the short break and the canal was lovely. The boat did everything required of it, but gave 4 stars because the beds were a struggle for those of us 6 ft tall!

06 Jun 2018

Carolyn

Thank you for your feedback, It's great to hear that you enjoyed your holiday! You don't say if you took advantage of the wider beds on the Warbler as this may have given you a little extra space. We hope to see you again soon.

Your recent holiday on Swan - Black Necked Swan from Anderton

Fantastic weekend break on the Black Neck Swam. Staff were very friendly, informative and catered to all our needs. The boat was equipped with everything you need, from bedding, towels and utensils. It was our first canal trip and we've booked again next year. Thank you

Carolyn

Wow, you have caught the canal boat bug! We're so pleased that you enjoyed your first holiday with us and that we will see you again next year!

Your recent holiday on Heron - Great Blue Heron from Anderton

We hadn't realised what a lovely county Cheshire was, and toddling along at a slow pace means you can enjoy it, Great to see all the wildlife and the boat had everything we needed. A.B.C. Boats staff were all friendly and helpful and the weather except for one day was warm and sunny. It would be a good idea if the little café next to the Marina did breakfasts but we still had an excellent holiday ( Went to a nearby Weatherspoons on the last day for breakfast.

It's definitely a slower pace of life but the best way to relax! We're so pleased that you had great weather and enjoyed the countryside. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon.
