Just spent a wonderful afternoon, celebrating a friend’s 60th.

The afternoon tea was outstanding, all the staff were AMAZING 👏, nothing was too much trouble.

And The boat, The Jubilee was beautiful.

A very calming and gentle afternoon, watching the wildlife.

Had a fab day going up and down on this 4hour trip. Staff helped us on and off. Made us tea and buiscuts given out too.

We took a packed lunch and really enjoyed the magazine and info provided by staff.

They volenteers were so lovely we got there too early but they made us all drinks and feel welcome.

Go join them if not this year next they also need people to help repairs and volenteer on the days out. You can help when your free and if you really love it train to be a skipper.

These are also up for hire approx £1000.00 for a week hold 6 people so a couple of hundred for a weeks boating not bad I thought life jackets and full training given. Enjoy.

Thanks all.

Went on the canal art 4 hour experience today, tutored by the lovely Kerri. What a fabulous day out. Every member of staff/volunteer was friendly and welcoming. Kerri is so knowledgeable and encouraging. Came away with a mug I’d painted with a rose design, a lively momentum of a wonderful day. Excellent value for money too.

We hired Jubilee for 5 days in May. Right from booking the holiday we had a fantastic experience. Kev our skipper was great and did a thorough job at teaching us to drive the boat etc. The boat itself is extremely spacious and very comfortable. It had everything we needed aboard, and the welcome package including coffee and cake was a lovely touch. We loved every minute of being on the boat and highly recommend Peter Le Merchant Trust if you’re looking to hire a boat. Fantastic service all round. Thank you ☺️
