We took the 12 noon afternoon tea cruze that was just lovely. The staff were great, door and drink was perfect and the cruze itself was very pleasant. This was just a lovely afternoon out and I highly recommend it

Nice relaxing 1 hr trip.

Dave Spikey’s commentary about the canal was funny and informative too.

There’s a small bar if you want a drink whilst you relax. I booked the day before and got in.

Will book early next time for the afternoon tea.

Just been on a 2 hour afternoon tea cruise today which was a Mother’s Day present.

Can’t fault it from the minute getting on it was just lovely. Was really looked after and and the afternoon tea was lovely too. Sandwiches were so fresh, lovely scones/cakes and plenty of tea refills.

While trip was so relaxing and enjoyable.

Would definitely recommend

Had an excellent afternoon cruise with some delicious fish and chips. The reception staff were welcoming and helpful and the cabin staff were pleasant helpful and friendly. The boat was clean and well presented and we encountered some glorious views along the canal and enjoyed it immensely. There is plenty of parking close by and we will definitely return for another trip. Definitely worth a visit.

A great little afternoon out. Easy to get to as only a ten minute walk ( at a seniors pace) from the train station. The staff were polite, friendly and very helpful to my adult daughter who has mobility issues. The boat was warm, clean and welcoming. Food was freshly made and totally delicious. We spent two hours sailing down the canal at a leisurely pace, just watching the world go by without a care.
