A company is only as good as it’s products and especially its people. The team at Waterways are fantastic, a huge asset to the company. Special thanks to Trudi for staying with me while I tried to find that certain boat, thank you. To Aaron for taking my card details and running through the hiring process. Finally to Abbi for having the hirer re-run my card when the inevitable happened and my US bank declined the payment. We got there in the end! We’re now looking forward to our trip! Thank you all! Anyone from the US looking to try narrowboating in the UK. Look no further!

The prices are amazing but the site is incredibly hard to use, with small images, broken links, and pop-out windows for boat details that have an impossible to use image slider.

Our booking was handled efficiently and courteously, including a query about charging an electric car whilst we will be away from the marina. All the relevant paperwork arrived as expected within a few hours.

They were very clear and very helpful. They asked questions to make sure we’d get the most of out of up and coming holiday. Very impressed so far.

The booking process was very smooth, but this questionnaire is very premature and doesn't make sense at all. It arrived before the final confirmation of the booking and we haven't had the holiday yet. The confirmation came by email, so questions about delivery and damaged item is irrelevant

Thank you for your review, I am glad that the booking process went through smoothly for you. We do not send out any questionnaires so I am unsure what document you are referring to? Our email invite is to review our service, and that is sent along with our confirmation email. The boatyard then follows this up with their confirmation emails along with joining instructions. If we can assist at all, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us on 01252 796400 or email us: info@waterwaysholidays.com

Dear Mr Murphy We were so sorry to learn that you had to cancel your planned holiday due to a change in the travel plans of your group. Booking deposits are only refundable where a holiday is cancelled due to Government Covid-19 restrictions preventing your holiday from taking place.

Your website has a flaw that must be losing you lots of business, and disappointing a lot of customers. The search page is well presented, but if as someone who hasn't yet decided what kind of break I'm looking for, I might well not put anything in the 'length of holiday' field. There's an option in there for 'All available', but it's at the bottom, and why would I go looking for an option that's basically 'unspecified'? If I don't pick one and click search, the response doesn't say 'You must pick from the list of options', it says 'Sorry.......no availability for your selected dates & location'!!!!! It took me a long time to work this out, others will have given up assuming all boats were booked. Please fix search so that I don't have to choose 'Show all', otherwise many people will miss out on the best holidays of their lives.
