TESTIMONIALS

what do our customers think?

This was an excellent family holiday. The boat was much bigger than we had expected and had everything necessary for an enjoyable trip. The guidance videos and handover from the team had us well prepared for the trip. Despite a few days of rain at the start of our trip we had an excellent time and would highly recommend this type of holiday with Carrickcraft.

The members of your team in Carrick are simply the highlight of your company. Everyone of them was very kind, helpful and customer-oriented. It was a pleasure to meet them.

Morgan and his team were fantastic. Very helpful, full of knowledge and great advice. We thoroughly enjoyed our time aboard and look forward to our next adventure!

This was our first time on a boating holiday and we were apprehensive enough. From booking it with Wendy, through check in and check out with Padraig it was an unbelievable experience. Padraig calmed my nerves straight away and I have to admit it ended up being one of the best family holidays we have been on. We have already planned another one for later in the year.

Colm Brennan

In all honestly, as a seasoned traveller, this was one of the best short breaks we have ever had! It was of course helped by the superb weather we enjoyed in Ireland that weekend however, everything about it was fantastic. The moorings all felt very safe and other people out boating were all so friendly and helpful. It was a joy from start to finish. I would and have recommended you company and this type of holiday to all my friends. Well done to all.

As well as the year before we had a wonderful time on board – just peace, quiet, picturesque little villages, breathtaking nature and the both of us. It was pure bliss.

All in all really a dream-holiday. The boats are super, your staff is nice and competent. The Irish are unbelievable friendly and a very helpul nation.
In general we felt really, really comfortable in your awesome country. Thanks a lot. We loved it. AND we will return … 🙂

We loved every moment of this trip, it was for my 50th Birthday, and I want to thank you all for your service. It was so memorable, I can’t wait to do it again next year! Everyone that we met at the marinas etc. are all very helpful, it’s such a fantastic community of people. I have been on so many holidays in the past, but I think this trip by far, is the best one so far. See you again next year! 🙂

Sandra and Noel Sweeney

We had a fabulous holiday on the boat. We have two girls aged 8 and 10 and they loved it. Everything, from the efficiency and the friendliness of the Carrig Craft staff to the hospitality of the locals at each mooring, could not have been better. We will certainly be back.
Many Thanks,

The Madden Family

We had a great time. We hired the cruiser to take part in the Shannon Boat Rally. Coming from Australia we were nervous about getting everything booked early so all was seamless for the specific dates. We ended up winning a few competitions and taking home some sliver (particularly first in the overseas entrant and the hire boat class from Bord na Mona), which was very exciting. Nothing was a problem with the booking and the cruiser, which made life on the river so much more pleasant. Thanks to everyone at carrick craft.

Nigel Waterhouse

The best holiday for all ages and boating experience. The standard of the boat, staff and facilities in Carrickcraft Banagher are fantastic. Noel, Rob and the rest of the team are so professional, friendly and helpful. Cannot wait to return next year.

Dara Connolly

I’ve toured Ireland by car and rail and have never seen nor experienced the beauty or seen rural Ireland in quite the same way. Having accommodation, cooking facilities and transportation in one package (the boat) made for a very economical journey. And of course the added adventure of traveling the river by boat made it all the more memorable.

Sean Connoly

As an additional comment, I would like to add a big praise for the organisation of our holiday, from original booking right through to setting afloat and docking at the end. For unexperienced sailors, everything seemed very straightforward. The Carrick Craft staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful time and the whole family enjoyed mucking in. I hope we can repeat the experience one day, by exploring the Shannon river south of Carrick on Shannon next time. Thank you for a great holiday! 🙂

Alison Hogarth

An excellent holiday that is fun for all the family! Something totally different and well worth it. All staff were incredibly helpful both over the phone/email and in person! Will definitely be back!
