Our Customers Comments

Read what some of our previous clients say about the Cheshire Ring.

"As novices with a canal boat and only having a week we restricted ourselves to the short route Acton to Chester and return. We found this well within our capabilities (average age of crew was 72) with pleasant rural scenery, and interesting small towns. At the time - May - the route was quiet with little traffic so that waiting time at locks or tunnels was minimal. Can be recommended as a short, pleasant, undemanding route."

"We enjoyed it so much we are contemplating doing another trip next year, with some friends. Also, I was very impressed when I was booking the holiday by the fact that the bookings people suggested alternative dates when my original dates (and boat) were not available. It had to be the least stressful way I've booked a holiday in a long time."

I would recomend this route to any newcomer to canal boating. The holiday was thoroughly enjoyed by everybody in our party including the kids. We hope to do another canal trip later in the year with my parents to introduce them to the pleasures of canal boating.

"We met up with friends and had a very enjoyable week-end. We found the boat very cosy and everything seemed well-arranged. We found being able to arrange things via email/using web-sites etc. Very much less hassle than mail and phone calls and would certainly do it again.

"The service was excellent. The boat was ready to go when we arrived and once the boat had been tied up at the end of the trip, there was no leftover paperwork to be completed. We literally got straight out of the boat into the car for the journey home. Very impressive."
