The service was excellent from Springwood marina the staff were really helpful unfortunately they had tried showing us the video. The boat had an issue with a water pump, it was very noisy and had to be swollen off at night

7 days on Winter Wren. Pickup was smooth and well practised, as was handover on return. Everything very chilled and relaxed but effective too. We came away for a week's relaxing on the canal and, that was exactly what we got. Everything we needed was supplied, but we brought a few extras - bath sheets and our own pillows, a wool blanket for the bed. All in all very warm and comfy. This was our 2nd hire with ABC. We will be back, but probably at a different location. Thankyou. Hugh and Susie Barnes

We travelled from Wrenbury to Llangollen via stops below Grindley Locks and Ellesmere Arm. After most of a day at Llangollen we returned via stops at Ellesmere Arm and Whitchurch Arm. I can recommend the Thai in Ellesmere and the Black Bear in Whitchurch where we ate.

Would definitely recommend ABC. Staff were very helpful and gave us a thorough explanation around operating the boat. Loved our week away.

We were first timers and a little nervous though confident due to the training we had been given. Remembering David’s “take it slowly and think it through” was always in our heads and the confidence he gave us made it all great. The boat 69 foot long was a bit of a challenge in parts but we did it, enjoying and learning. Lovely well appointed boat. I know all my responses are 5 but they truely deserve it and I could not fault them.

Excellent service, couldn't fault it. From arrival at the marina to the hand over of the boat, everything was clearly explained. The boat itself was well equipped and clean, it even had WiFi. All the equipment on the boat worked, fridge, microwave, oven and gas hob.

Very helpful, and pleasant knowledgeable staff, made picking up the boat a pleasure. We were shown the necessary details of the boat without being talked down to and our questions were answered plainly and helpfully by Tom and Dom at Red Line Narrowboats, Goytre Wharf.

The boat was really clean and tidy and almost everything worked properly and well. The on-board documentation was clear and helpful. Our only issue was the TV picture, which was very poor quality when being used to play a DVD, and this was a very minor problem which didn't interfere with our enjoyment.
