We hired Bluebell for a long weekend holiday and went down to Godalming and back. Julia and Stuart were so helpful and the boat had everything we needed including a coal fire. We were novice boaters but Stuart gave us great instruction on how to manoeuvre the boat and guided us through the first lock. Highly recommended.

Amazing day , we were first time boaters and with instructions and little training we managed go through locks and had a day of adventure. Friendly and down to earth staff . Easy parking, lots of bars on the side of river no need to prepare picnic, but if you do kettle and hob is there.
And also everyone we met while boating were so kind and friendly , no problems with returning boat and deposit. Already looking to book another one
Thank you for a beautiful day

Luckily we have lovely friends and family so had a great day...but having hired day boats from other places we found this boat, small and not very clean at all!
We have quite a bit of experience with canal boats but were 'taught' before we could take it in a very patronising and unnecessary way.
There definitely needs to be an element of trust from the owners if they want to hire out their boats as it definitely is not the Queen Mary 2.

Hired the 'Mary Porter' for a family birthday. The boat was tastefully decorated for the occasion with plenty supply of plates and bowls to serve our own food.
The owners were extremely helpful in making this a surprise and even sang happy birthday as we arrived.
Stuart delivered an excellent tutorial ensuring we were confident enough to operate safely, and with courtesy, on the river.
Upon returning the boat, the owners were pleased to see us and asked all the children (aged three and five) if they had a lovely time etc. We were even supplied with colouring pencils and pictures to keep the
