<b>Enjoyable and educational day out on the canal!</b> Lovely day out on the canal. It was very interesting to do the locks and everyone enjoyed the trip! Good learning experience for the kids! Owner was helpful and friendly, and the steering was easier than it looked.
<b>Great narrowboat experience - fabulous introduction to canal boating.</b> Had a wonderful 4 days on the canal with 'Western Star'. They were great help with us picking the boat up (first time overnight on one), made sure we were comfortable with it all, were really clear about water / heating / gas / etc and helped us through the first lock. They were also fab when we returned as we came back in the middle of very high winds and anyone who goes on canal boats knows how hard they are to steer in wind - especially reversing! Friendly and down to earth, would definitely go again.
<b>Just an amazing time and experience:</b> Booking was very simple online and the company then got in touch to finalise it all and make sure it was all right. Very nice and fun guy on the phone called Mark Pilgrim. He had the same excited energy as me booking the holiday which was really nice. Upon arrival we were given plenty of advice from Terry ( The main man) and he was happy to answer any questions we threw at him. He also drew us a map of the route we hoped to take and gave us all the places of interest for the family ( 3 kids from 9 to 17) to visit. So big thank you to Terry. Then it was the tour of the boat by Matt and all the health and safety aspects that go with being on a canal boat. So even if your a complete novice, your made to feel at ease. The boat itself ( Western star ) performed flawlessly thought our 5 days aboard and was easy to use. It is getting old now so don't expect the newest mod cons, but the price was so good it balances out your expectations. It was very clean for us and in all honesty I can't fault anything. Mrs Bouquet might find a fault but if your not that kind of person you would surely be happy. You can also leave 2 cars on site for the duration of the holiday at no extra cost which is very handy. As a family we all have said we would love to go back ASAP and try another route, knowing we're in safe hands.
