Comments and Reviews:
The company is based at Mercia Marina on the Trent and Mersey not so far from  Burton on Trent and near the village of Willington.

Routes offerred include Black Country Ring, Four Counties Ring and Leicester Ring. the picturesque Great Haywood,  Stoke Potteries or the beautiful rural Shropshire Union Canal.

Oldest of the four boats built  2007, described as " luxury 5 star", look well appointed with nice layout but there seems little above the norm in terms of general facilities to claim a five star rating,which is also reflected in a relatively modest pricing structure.
