Customer Comments
"Did The Avon Ring, superb trip, no poor places, Stopped for lunch and dinner at a pub every day and was not once disappointed."

"We found some marvelous places to stop over night, among these were Lowsonford, Stratford, Evesham, Eckington, Draw Bridge, Stoke Prior and near Tardebigge Top Lock. All places had charming inns/pubs with very good food."

"Excellent boat, facilities, instructions etc. Even the weather was wonderful. We went up a couple of miles then turned round and made it to the outskirts of Stratford. The route was very pretty and well worth doing for a short trip such as ours."

"Thank you for helping with the arrangements for our canal trip. It was just about the best vacation ever. There were seven of us on the narrow boat and we all had a great time. The boat was great and seeing the countryside by canal is one of the best ways. Always a good pub for dinner and pleasant villages to spend the evenings. I would recommend this kind of holiday to anyone who wants to relax."

"The 131 locks were a good work out, but a little ambitious for 2 people!! Boat amenities first class. Loved everything on the River Avon. Recommend the Angel Inn & Posting House, 9 High St, Pershore, Worcs. Quality restaurant. We even enjoyed the rain!!"

"We went from Tardebigge to Stratford and back. Good pubs were The Crown, The Wharf Tavern and The Navigation. We liked Wedges bakery very much, the people were very nice and helpful."
