Black Prince Narrowboat Holidays Reviews

"We loved our boat and want to buy one now! We would recommend this to anyone that enjoys nature and has a do it yourself attitude for adventure! We literally can\u2019t stop talking about how much we loved it! If we lived in the UK then we would probably do this every year "

"We recently had the pleasure of embarking on an unforgettable adventure with Black Prince Holidays, exploring the stunning Stourport Ring on one of their charming narrowboats. From the breathtaking views and the warmth of the people to the captivating scenery, every aspect of this experience left us in awe. We wholeheartedly recommend Black Prince Holidays to anyone seeking a remarkable holiday on the water. Whether we were cruising through the countryside, passing through quaint villages, mooring up for the night in Birmingham, or navigating impressive locks, the ever-changing scenery was amazing. But it was not just the captivating vistas that made this journey remarkable; it was the people we encountered along the way. Black Prince Holidays' team was exceptional, displaying genuine warmth and professionalism. From the moment we arrived, their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring our comfort and satisfaction were evident. They patiently guided us through the intricacies of navigating the narrowboat, providing us with all the necessary information and making sure we felt confident in our journey. The local community along the Stourport Ring also left an indelible mark on our journey. The friendly locals all greeted us with a smile and a pint. They all were happy to share fascinating stories and their pride in the area's history. From the idyllic Worcestershire countryside with its rolling hills and meandering rivers to the industrial heritage of the Black Country, each stretch of the canal offered a unique perspective on the region's rich tapestry. The architectural marvels of the cathedrals, canal bridges and tunnels, combined with the abundance of wildlife and charming waterside pubs, made every moment an incredible discovery. Passing by the Worcester Cathedral Sunday morning as the bells rang will be a memory we'll never forget. Black Prince Holidays ensured that our narrowboat experience was nothing short of exceptional. The meticulously maintained and fully equipped vessel provided a comfortable and cozy retreat after a day of exploration. With all the necessary amenities at hand, including a well-appointed kitchen and a comfortable sleeping area, we felt right at home throughout our journey. Our journey with Black Prince Holidays on the Stourport Ring was an amazing experience that exceeded all expectations. They were even incredibly kind enough to send my glasses to me after I mistakenly left them on board. If you care looking for a great canal boat experience, you need to choose Black Prince for your next adventure!"

"Black Prince offer luxury on the canals. Easy to operate, well maintained, reliable and comfortable boats. First class instruction before we set out. We loved every moment. Upon our return we encountered personal problems ,( phone left in taxi) and the Black Prince family bent over backwards to help reunite us with our phone. \r\nA special thankyou to Paul Archer. \r\nSuch a great experience. \r\nFive stars\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50"

"We have used Black Prince for a number of years now, and have never been dissappointed. Everything is so clean and and everything's explained thoroughly. "

"A big thank you to the really friendly and helpful staff at Wigrams Turn. From start to finish the assistance we had from Black Prince and Lauren was first class. I am happy to say that was reflected when we arrived at Wigrams Turn! Alan Neil and Kieran were particularly helpful and and got us away on our trip with all the info and with minimum fuss. Can't thank you enough for a fabulous week on a comfy and well equipped narrowboat. I will definitely book with you again!"

"Great experience for beginners. Couldn't beat the tranquillity. Will definately be booking again. "

"If I could give Black Prince more than 5 stars I would. The boat was IMMACULATE! I was a little worried it would have that musty damp smell a lot of boats have but it was fresh as a daisy! Very well appointed kitchenette. Bathroom worked great for us. Beds were comfortable. We had never been on a narrowboat before but our host Danny made it so easy to learn how to drive. He is incredibly knowledgeable and a great teacher. His focus was making sure we were set up for a successful and FUN trip. His recommendations were great, especially to remember this type of holiday is about slowing down and enjoying the world around you - not powering it out to a destination. I can\u2019t wait to return for another adventure. Totally worth the flight from the USA. "
