We had a wonderful 7 days. We visited some very interesting places and relaxed comfortably on the journeys in between. The food was superb and a fellow passenger with dietary needs was sympathetically catered for. Entertainment was most enjoyable, whether it was the crew members and their quizzes or the professional musicians. We would have liked there to be some planned circular walks round the countryside to do when we moored up. I would also like to see some racking to take the used cups and plates that at the moment are just left on the worktop in the refreshment area, although the crew do collect them regularly. The cabin accommodation was comfortable and spotlessly clean with the best use made of the space available. We have been recommending the Edward Elgar to all our friends and family and hopefully we will be returning ourselves. Brian & Denise Hadleigh
