Your recent holiday on Lark - Dusky Lark from Alvechurch

Excellent customer service, especially from Andrew at Alvechurch Marina. Andrew spent a good hour maybe more going through everything on the boat, teaching us how to tie knots and get through the locks, and explaining everything inside the boat, very helpful and pleasant person, he also helped us when we returned the boat, so special thanks to Andrew. As we passed some of the other boat hire companies, we noticed their customers only getting 15 or 20 minutes tuition, which is nowhere near enough The rest of the staff were also very good The boat was great bar one small issue, the TV didnt work, but that kind of made the holiday better, as we didnt sit round watching TV all night, had to find other things to do, the radio not working was a bit more of a pain, but we streamed music through our phones, so no big deal really.

Made the mistake of turning right out of the marina, so had to do the 30 Tardybigge locks practically immediately, having said that, all worked out well, if not a little tired at the bottom, the boat was great, had everything we needed, as mentioned before TV and radio didnt work, but no big deal for us

Your recent holiday on Wagtail - Forest Wagtail from Worcester

It was a trip we had all anticipated eagerly, and didn't disappoint.

Your recent holiday on Wagtail - Forest Wagtail from Worcester

We were a three-generation family group, and it worked well. Teenage grandsons did the hard graft, the 21-year old and her father took the controls, and my daughter was in charge of meals. This left me with supervision and relaxation, which was ideal in view of my advanced years. Our weather was dry and just warm enough. I was surprised how few other boats we saw on an August weekend. The ABC staff we met were warm, considerate and constructive.

Your recent holiday on Swift - Great Dusky Swift from Springwood Haven Marina

Clean, tidy and well equipped narrow boat that was only a few years old. Only issue was the plug in the bathroom that wouldn't stay down but was only a minor inconvenience. We booked for 2 weeks and they gave is a clean set of bedding to change after the first week, first time an ABC hire base has done this.

Your recent holiday on Swift - Great Dusky Swift from Springwood Haven Marina

Excellent well equipped narrow boat, Spring Haven Marina were quick in handing the boat over with a safety briefing as had previous experience. The return of the narrow boat was seem less and completed within 30 minutes. Have used ABC Boat Hire regularly and would book again.
