Our week on the River Severn was a very happy time and we cannot praise Captain Richard and his staff enough for making our holiday very special. The female staff members were delightful and extremely hardworking making sure that everyone felt welcomed and had everything they required. The chef produced very good meals and happily accommodated various diets and allergies. The journey on the river was peaceful, interesting and varied and the Edward Elgar was very clean with comfortable furniture. The itinerary was well-planned and the external guides were knowledgeable and enthusiastic. All in all a very enjoyable and memorable week.
