Great, except for this bit requiring an entry and a minimum number of characters, 1 star down because of this

ABC are the best hire company for a barge. Their boats are just like being home from home. It’s my happy place, I love walking down into the cosy space they provide.

ABC are just the best company to hire a barge from. We had our challenges this trip, but that was due to the canal not ABC. We did a there and back holiday and called into our marina for a pump out and water top up. They couldn’t have been more helpful. We just love their boats and their staff are amazing.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s great to hear that you enjoyed cruising the beautiful canal aboard Whites Thrush from Blackwater Meadow Marina. The Llangollen Canal has some fantastic scenery and plenty of welcoming waterside pubs to discover, so we’re pleased you made the most of the route and found some great places to stop along the way. We hope to welcome you back for another canal adventure soon. ABC Boat Hire

The welcome from Cat was excellent. Dave the engineer was extremely thorough and personable. The boat was extremely clean. The only drawback is the TVs don’t seem to work! And their is only a small ice tray meaning small G@Ts😂

Preparation very good no issues with handover

Stressful mooring, due to lack of spaces or the boat being larger than marina specs say they can take (Winchburgh specifically on that one).
04 Aug 2026
The boat itself was great, comfortable and spacious. The canal was scenic BUT due to closures on other areas of canal (to Kelpies and from the Kelvin aqueduct) mooring at many of the suggestions was not available because it was full. This made the experience of finding somewhere to stay the night to be stressful. Also, because the water levels are low and the banks not tenses, you can't moor anywhere you like (contrary to the words of the gent who handed over the boat).

Friendly and helpful staff. Our boat was clean and tidy with all amenities required. Would highly recommend the cruise to Bristol, the Avon is breathtakingly beautiful. Dogs loved it. Comfortable bed, loved spending time sat out the front with nature

Canals are great. A bit of rubbish in the water and on the banks.

Amazing week, travelled from hilperton marina along to Bath then Bristol, returned to Bath and back on the kennet and avon canal. Perfect week long journey with stays in both city centres and countryside.

Excellent service. Great training give. Boat is clean, well maintained and very comfortable. The scenery is green and tranquil. Victorian engineering is mindblowing. We even saw a few birds!
