Summercraft Reviews and Comments

'It was very relaxing and you were in control. We had a chance to get completely away from it all. Salhouse Broad was particularly restful and well worth a visit.'
Mr. P
, SALISBURY
on 31/08/2009
'I would recommend this holiday to anyone who wants complete relaxation. We booked with Summercraft and they were excellent on all points'
Mrs N
, SOUTHAMPTON
on 26/08/2009
'This was a remarkably comfortable boat for two people. There are not enough similar boats in the brochure so that one tends to hire bigger boats (with unused berths) which are more difficult for a couple to moor etc. Other than that, the new moorings (e.g. Howe Hill and South Walsham) are a great improvement. Totally relaxing but never a dull moment!'

, ORMSKIRK

'We have recommended the holiday to a number of friends because it was so relaxing and enjoyable from start to finish. Great places to stop, lovely walks, pubs, and best of all to be able to go wherever you want at whatever speed and time to suit yourselves. One of the best relaxing holidays we have had in a long time!'

'I took my partner on the Broads for the first time this year. We had a great time. The weather was great. The boat was just the right size and not too many other boats travelling so it was easy to moor up in the evenings. I would thoroughly recommend this holiday to everyone.'

, Rochford
, Essex,

'If you are looking to chill out and leave the rat race behind then the Broads may be a good place for you to visit. Everything slows down to walking pace and it is up to you to decide if you turn your mobile on or not. Cruise around and find some of the quaint and friendly towns and villages which are dotted around the Broads, and just relax and let the rest of the world pass you by for a week or two!'
