Customers' Comments
Read what some of our previous clients say about the Stourport Ring.
"We did the Stourport Ring and enjoyed it very much. We felt the holiday a complete success. Most particularly we enjoyed Worchester. The cathedral and the china museum were of great interest to us and we thoroughly enjoyed them."

"We liked the Ring, with joy for both grown ups and kids, and also some time for shopping. On this route you can find everything with countryside, some time along the river, tunnels, small towns and big towns. It was fantastic to stay in the middle of Birmingham, with no noise or problems even during night time."

"Really lovely boat, well equipped, clean, quiet. The ring we did (Stourport) was, to our huge surprise, deserted. We passed virtually no other boats. It made doing flights of locks much easier, as we didn't have to wait for other boats. I highly recommend it - great balance of rural and industrial."

"Birmingham was fantastic and a real surprise. The moorings in the centre are fantastic. We also liked Cadburys World and Kinver. Some great pubs too, especially the one on the canal at Kinver and the Camp House Inn near Worcester."
MH, USA
"We had a glorious time. We were with good friends, we had good food, and we had a good time. What more can you ask of a vacation?"
KL, UK
"It is a pity that this type of holiday is not well known in the Netherlands. Until this holiday, we didn't know of any travel agency which had information about narrowboats in the UK. A lot of people have already asked us about the holiday."
