ABC Boat Hire Reviews

Thank you so much for sharing your experience — we’re absolutely delighted to hear you had a perfect holiday! It’s wonderful to know the boat was spotlessly clean, well-equipped, and that our team at reception made you feel welcome and supported throughout your stay. We really appreciate your thoughtful feedback about the shop and are glad you were able to find what you needed elsewhere. We're especially pleased that our team at Alvechurch Marina could assist you promptly over the phone after your husband's accident — we hope he’s recovering well. Despite the challenges with water levels, broken locks, and even a tree in the canal, it’s fantastic to hear that you still had such a memorable and adventurous week. Operating locks and bridges is all part of the fun, and we’re so happy your son enjoyed it too — we’d love to welcome you all back again soon! Many thanks, ABC Boat Hire
