We all enjoyed our 1st holiday on the narrow boat, everyone taking turns on the boat controls, locks and bridges and mooring up. We set off with some trepidation but soon were having great fun and an unforgetable experience. Would recommend to all !!!
Mrs C from West Yorkshire

A fantastic experience in a beautiful part of the world. The boat was great, spotlessly clean, warm and very comfortable. We reccommend that everyone has a holiday like this at least once in their lives. Doing anything but relaxing is impossible!
Mrs S from Alness

Our annual girls weekend away has reached new heights. We laughed from start to finish, and are still doing so now. It was a fantastic tonic.
Mrs L from Newcastle Upon Tyne

I would throughly recommend this holiday to anyone, no matter how old or young. The wildlife which can be seen from the canal was amazing but in particular though, everyone was really friendly and are always willing to help outm especially the team at Silsden boat yard. They were very accommodating of our needs (as you can imagine, 9 girls can be quite demanding) and they were keen to make sure that we had a good time. Its nice to know good service is still out there!
