I can highly recommend booking your dream canal holiday with Jones Family Cruising. Great people, fabulous boat affordable. We had a wonderful, memory making break.

I was really apprehensive as a friend who was joining me and my son for the cruise had cancelled late on, but the orientation and cruising/ lock operating tuition before we were let loose was excellent. We soon looked almost like we'd been doing it all our lives and had no problems. The accommodation on board is very comfortable and worked perfectly for us - we had our own space, including bathrooms. And he even got to play on the play station in the evening. Would highly recommend.
The family were not sure about this, so we did the taster day, that was great, food was brilliant, only made one mistake, we forgot to bring a bottle of vino to go with lunch. We had the boat for 10 days for our break. it's well equipped, comfy, the only expense that we incurred was for a toilet pump out, but that was not a lot (16), so no issue. We found some smashing pubs on the canals as well. This was the most relaxing and tiring holiday I have been on for years. BRILLIANT. The Jones family have this SPOT ON! GREAT VALUE, GREAT BOAT, GREAT FAMILY. We did have issues when we went home though, I thought the bed was still rocking when we got home and my wife walked into the wardrobe wondering why there were clothes in the bathroom.
Our one week stay aboard narrowboat Maddison as a family of 5 was without doubt one of the best holidays we've been on. The boat itself is modern, spacious and clean. Extremely well equipped it affords most of the comforts of home, packed efficiently into the space of a narrowboat. Once you start your trip and begin to spot other boats using the canals you'll realise what a good decision it was to have hired this boat. The generic fleets of hire boats out there pale in comparison to Maddison. The owners are both friendly and professional and communicate well in terms of making the necessary arrangements for payments, arrival and general advice in terms of routes etc. They were always a text or phone call away when we needed advice during our trip. There's some beautiful routes to navigate around the area. Hazy summer days pottering down the waterways, feeding the ducks and swans and BBQs on the towpath - truely idilic. We were reluctant to hand the boat back at the end of our trip! We found the hire pricing for this boat to be excellent value for money. Watch out for the extra charges other hire firms impose for fuel and insurances. Thanks to the Jones family for an exciting and pleasent stay.
Maddison is a great boat for up to 8 persons, we were group of 6 and had plenty of room.definately recomnend it. We had a fab week with friends, going up to Chester. Brevic & Michelle friendly and welcoming. See you next year, booked already
