Good week away, but marred by numerous issues with the boat (Western Star) and the lacklustre post-hire service from Starline. The engine is embarrassingly loud, even at tickover. The amount of comments we had as we negotiated peaceful canals and waterways around the midlands. The mattress on the main bed is terrible and sleeping 5 would certainly not be a comfortable experience. The boat needs a thorough and deep clean, and basics like handsoap and knives that can cut anything would be useful!! Finally, getting through to somebody in the office wasn’t possible. We were told that if we need to treat somebody we would call and leave a message, but the phone wasn’t answered on the four occasions that we called and it wasn’t possible to leave a message. All in all it was a lovely few days, just a shame that the boat and the service wasn’t better.

Had a great short break on Kentish Star. 1st time on a narrow boat unfortunately due to flooding in the area had a smaller route to navigate, would of loved to go further but will book up again next year. Boat was in good condition for its age and learnt more about Narrow boats during our holiday. Our dog was nervous at 1st but was soon jumping on and off the boat when we approached a lock.

We had a lovely time aboard Starline Narrowboats. Alwyn run us through all we needed to know in order to control the narrowboat & operate the locks. Our experience was very cosy & pleasant. We often stopped off for pub lunches & shopping. The narrowboat has all the essentials you need to have a comfortable stay including central heating - shower - flushing toilet & cooker etc. It’s like a small floating caravan. Take warm clothes if you feel the cold though. The scenery was excellent & you wake up to the quack quack of ducks.... ha ha It was extra special for my fiancé & I as I proposed. (8-11-17)

Amazing experience, first time narrow boating for my 30th birthday, and the staff were friendly and approachable. The boat had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable. Engine ran beautifully! The area was lovely and we were recommended to go from Stourport to Kinver which we did, instructions for the boat were straight forward and will definitely be back, thanks Starline!!

Stayed on North Star at the beginning of September 2018 with only 5 people on a 12 birth boat. The toilets were full after 3 days. The oven is the only method of cooking so its one pizza at a time and the boat instructions say if twelve people are on board do it in two sittings which would take all night. The fridge failed and it cost 115 to go to a local vet to buy new insulin kept in the fridge for the cat we had with us. We also had to throw the food out as it was warm. When the new/used fridge was fitted we had to run the engine during the evening and in the early hours as the batteries kept going flat which would have ruined the insulin again. The company are not interested in the slightest. They refuse to answer my email complaint even though they say by phone they will not enter into discussions without and email. Its 6 weeks since we returned from the holiday and we have still not had our full deposit returned despite many phone calls. By the way did i say you have to pay the diesel which runs the engine and keeps the fridge cold and heats the hot water and also the central heating. If you are thinking of using this company which are owned by Carey Yacht Charter i would think again you.
