Check in and check out was swift and the friendly staff gave us all the information we needed for our first canal boat trip. The boat was spotless and well prepared, everything we needed! Thank you West Country ABC boats

We are returning customers benefitting from significant discounts. ABC is a super friendly company with top end boats in many locations. Reservation is easy, the staff without exemption are courteous and helpful. Safety is paramount with a thorough briefing before departure. Wilson at Nantwich marina was excellent, taking us out of the marina, ensuring we were competent. The boat was fitted out perfectly. There were four of us with two double beds en suite and the galley perfectly placed at the stern. We went south to Market Drayton, a superb unspoilt rural idyllic. Audlem well worth visiting. Corkscrew and scissors on board were cheap and didn’t work but this is our only criticism On return Carl was happy for us to return through the marina in reverse to the berth. Great fun

A very professional set up. Booking was easy and the App very useful. Reception and particularly handover was first class. The boat was only a year old and in immaculate condition. My only criticism would be that the hose to refill the water had pinholes which soaked crew and passersby alike. ABC really need to find an alternative type which is up to the job. Otherwise perfect!

Whitchurch to Llangollen and back in a week brought back very happy memories of a holiday many years ago. The weather certainly helped as it was the an exceptionally dry and warm week at the end of April but the boat was everything we expected and more. Water levels were good and the canal was not too busy. Scenery was everything I remember from before, stunning.

A perfect short break through wonderful countryside and in perfect weather. Winding hole beyond Mkt Drayton was not open (now privately owned) This wasn’t made clear but warned at Mkt Drayton. The advise before setting off is to look at Pearson’s (canal guide) on line to find potential recent problems that might affect your route, as in our case. Audlem a fantastic village well worth exploring. We really enjoyed The Shroppy Fly pub

Weather was perfect with temperatures in the mid 20s. Canal was so peaceful as there were very few boats on the water because of issues with lock repairs at the Stratford end so effectively boating to a dead end . The countryside was what you dream of in an ideal Spring .. The only downside we experienced was the low quality of the pubs/restaurants in the vicinity of the canal itself .

An absolutely brilliant experience. The assistance and service given by the staff was beyond expectations. The cleanliness of the boat and it's equipment was brilliant. A perfect week.

The experience was absolutely brilliant. This is the second year that we have had the same boat, the same week and the same route. Nothing could be faulted. The attention and service given by the staff was great, the cleanliness of the boat and the equipment was up to expectations. I cannot find anything to criticise.
