Guide To Union Wharf Narrowboats

Thank you so very much for a wonderful day out on a really fantastic boat. I really appreciate the fact you didn’t just cancel our booking when the boat we had originally booked was out of action.

The upgrade to your holiday boat made a joint 65th birthday and retirement celebration a very special and memorable day.

We have been hiring boats from your company now for at least 15 years and have always had a wonderful time. The guys who welcome your customers at the beginning and end of the day always go out of their way to make sure everyone is happy and has everything they need.

Thank you once again for yet another great experience!

We had a fab week cruising the canal system (lock free) between Foxton and Crick. I can’t recommend Union Wharf Narrowboats highly enough. 2 adults and 4 teens for 5 days and Mallard provided everything we needed for relaxing Holiday

Great narrowboat experience on board The Kingfisher from start to finish. Handover and skipper talk by Steve was friendly and informative. Small unavoidable issue with power beforehand but the team quickly responded with a solution so that it didn’t affect our day.

Weather was perfect for a cruise down The Grand Union Canal from Market Harborough to Foxton Locks and back again. The route is very scenic and peaceful with lots of wildlife.

The boat was well equipped with everything you would need to eat and drink on board.

We would absolutely love to do this again!

We hired Water Vole for a day this week and we all had a brilliant time – despite two rescue missions because 1. We didn’t tie the boat up properly and 2. One of us fell in! Everyone was amazingly friendly and professional. Can’t recommend this enough for a fun, relaxing day out. Thank you 😜

We had a really pleasant day trip on the water vole yesterday.

So modern and perfect for a small group to have a trip to foxton locks.

Union whafs staff friendly and knowledgeable. Set our minds at easy and made the day calm from start to finish.

Beautiful scenery and spotted herons, dragonflies along the way.

Peaceful and pleasant.
