me and my mother loved it! my mum had always wanted to experience a canal cruise and it was everything she wanted and that means alot to me. it needed to be perfect and it really was! the staff are awesome and could not do enough for their customers, the barge was amazing, so clean, relaxing and such a great place/atmosphere to be, we could of stayed there all day. the decor is so pretty, modern and chic, it was perfect! the only suggestion i have is maybe more food, a small warm tin(like half a pint size) with abit of battered fish, 3 thick cut chips and peas or chip shop curry would of gone down a treat, iv had this on other afternoon teas and its really an excellent touch, please offer it and just thank me on my next visit haha me and my mum are already planning our next cruise!! p.s. i called ahead (with very ittle notice) to ask if they could do a little something as it was my gift to my mother for her 60th and with the little notice they had they still managed to pull soething out the bag, thanks you so much for a wonderful time! see you again soon!

The food tasty and well presented. The staff cared for our every need. The boat is lovely. The actual trip is boring and dragged out. It was better when they went through the locks. More interesting. Hope they can go back to doing that soon

Food was very tasty, good menu choice. Drinks choice and price were good. Music was of for me the wrong choice, I would have liked more relaxing sounds. Service from waiter/waitress was excellent. Bit too long of a time gap between courses.would recommend and revisit.

Had the tapas evening, absolutely amazing, had a great time. The food was plentiful, hot and tasty. Very spacious and exceptionally clean, with lovely little touches of fresh flowers and proper tablecloths, even a personal fan on each table for very hot days/nights. Service was great, lovely staff and was made to feel very welcome. So relaxing, never been on a barge before. Would definitely recommend, will be booking again, would love to try their afternoon tea or Sunday lunch. Well done to everyone behind the scenes such as the cook and of course the driver of the barge.

We traveled over from West Yorkshire and found the directions very easy to follow, it took just over 1 hour to get there. The car park was very busy but we managed to get a space. We were celebrating our 40th Wedding anniversary by having Sunday Lunch onboard and a bottle of bubbly, very nice. Overall we had a very nice memorable day.

took my dad for his fathers day treat. The food is lovely. The boat was not over crowded so you didn't feel like you were on top of other diners. The service was good. Saw lots of lovely wildlife, swans & signets. Geese & goslings a baby deer chilling in a clump of bushes totally unbothered by our proximity. Will definitely go again

We did have a lovely time. . . . . the boat was beautiful and the weather quite pleasant. We saw goslings and swans and the scenery was lush. However, there was music playing throughout the excursion and sadly it was somewhat weird music. Not one tune did I recognise. It was grating and miserable too. The average age on the boat was similar to ours so it was possibly unsuitable for other guests too. We mentioned it . . no solution, apology or further interest was offered. Sadly we also had an issue with the wine. Because I was driving, we ordered a "medium" glass of wine as per the wine list. I drank the wine which was excellent. When we got the bill we thought the price was high so we checked the amount on the wine list. It seemed I'd been given the large glass of wine because "they don't do the small one anymore" So hubby had to drive! Not a serious issue but again when I mentioned it, there seemed to be little alarm or concern that a guest might end up drinking "over the limit" by accident. I'm sorry to appear negative . . .there was a lot good about the trip too. Despite these issues I think I would recommend the trip . . . .
