Our family, 2 adults and 2 children, 6 and 8 years old had an amazing week aboard Larkspur. Angus gave us excellent guidance on handling the boat and dealing with locks. The extra space the broad beam gave us, meant we never felt cramped even on the one rainy day and the wood burner really heats and dries everything out. When the tiller began to vibrate and we called Angus he had someone come and sort it out very quickly. It turned out to be a fender wrapped around the propeller shaft that we picked up in the famous Caen Hill Locks. We had many compliments on our boat and we enjoyed many of the pubs as well as the stunning landscape and wildlife the Kennet & Avon canal offers. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
