Our Customers' Comments
Read what some of our previous clients say about the
Llangollen Canal.
"Wish we were rich...we'd come back and
do our Welsh trip all over again. Thanks for a fine time. I won't
soon forget when your man jumped off the boat at the bridge...leaving
me ALONE AT THE HELM!!"
AK, USA
"The four of us, ranging in age from 53
to 73, all had a marvellous 4 days. Thanks for your help in organising
it."
MW, Australia
"We voyaged from Chirk to Llangollen to
Nantwich and back to Chirk. The route was diverse and characterised
by magnificent scenery as well as breathtaking historical canal
works. We recorded 32 species of birds. We spent nights alternatively
in towns and in rural byways. When they wished, the youngsters
would jump ashore and walk or run the towpath, usually reboarding
at a bridge site along the way. Other travellers we met were
friendly and relaxed."
AS, USA
"Our first narrowboat holiday, but the
combination of an exciting route and a well fitted boat made
it something to be repeated."
AH, UK
"Most of the route exceeded our expectations.
We cynically expected that the best was shown in the brochures
but learned that the whole route was full of nice scenery with
new surprises at each bend. The Llangollen was fanatastic."
MH, USA
"I think it was one of the best holidays
I've ever had and I could've stayed for another four weeks. My
partner feels the same way. The boat was clean, reliable and
stocked with the groceries that we requested. A friendly chap
showed us the ins-and-outs of the boat pretty succinctly and
off we went. We actually fell in love with the boat and were
very sad to leave her behind."
CD, UK
"The Llangollen Canal and Montgomery Canal
were an outstanding experience. Aside from the natural beauty,
the small number of locks was attractive to a wife to whom such
things do not appeal."
DM, South Africa
"The boat was in perfect condition, perfectly
clean, the galley well supplied, and instructions were clear
and accurate. The young lady who briefed us was polite and professional
and patient. The free parking was a major plus and the Chirk
Castle setting another plus.
AG, USA
"Ellesmere port is a pretty little town
with a good food shops and pubs. We'd recommend The Woolpack
in Llangollen - it's a very pretty and somewhat eclectic restaurant
that looks out over the river. It also had a decent selection
of wines."
CD, UK
