Rated 1 out of 5 by Beth Jones on 8th October 2021

Incredibly rude staff, spoke to us like we were the stupidest people on earth. Boat was dirty when we got it. Blonde lady is the rudest, definitely find elsewhere to hire your boats from. Type of lady that would wear white to your wedding, not someone you want to be have helping you go on a peaceful holiday

Rated 1 out of 5 by Harriet Booth on 1st October 2021

Rude staff, very unpleasant and spoilt the last day of our holiday by demanding we leave early even though we should have had the boat until 9.30am. we were made to leave by 8.15am. Unprofessional way of working

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kate Clark on 9th July 2019

Very friendly, knowledgeable and efficient staff. We started a weeks holiday on a canal boat from here and had a great holiday.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sue Elizabeth Cresswell on 28th January 2020

Just hired a day boat for later this year. Not used this co before. Very helpful over booking looking forward to a great day out

Rated 1 out of 5 by marion yeeles on 17th July 2019

Tourist attraction I don't think so. Felt like I was intruding in peoples gardens. Theres nothing there except private barges. Do not bother
