Happy to recommend your site to anyone interested in hiring a boat
Thanks for your email. The booking, value for money, Emerald Star: le boat as they are now known were all great. The weather however let us down badly and unfortunately put a bit of a damper on our trip. There is however one issue that should be addressed and its quite out of your control but maybe yu may be able to get a word in some day. The problem is that the information ...

We will surely book a house boat holiday in Ireland again
We had a great time on the house boat! The whole family enjoyed the few days on the lakes and rivers of Ireland a lot.
We will surely book a house boat holiday in Ireland again. Next time even for a few days more, so we get to travel further.
Thanks for the good organisation, all worked out perfectly.

We had a good break- very lucky with the weather, let it be said!

Generally all was fine- there were quite a few minor issues with the boat, but we made Emerald aware of all of these.

Overall we had a really enjoyable few days.
You were very helpful and flexible when making and changing the booking.
The trip went well. The boat was ready and induction was straightforward.

Emerald star assured us that it was the smell of the river but we rema...

Would like to compliment you on your website which as a comparison website is excellent.
All went smoothly although the weather was a bit rough over the bank holiday weekend!! Staff at Silverline were friendly and helpful, the boat was fine although starting to show its age! Had to have the heating system and a few leaks repaired.
Very happy with your service and will be happy to book through you in the future (2nd year running now!)

Everything was great Brian, including the weather
Everything was great Brian, including the weather. There was a problem with the gears on the boat before we left so we got upgraded to a much bigger, better boat. Fred the dog had a great time too and all the pubs along the way had no problem in letting him in.

All went according to plan apart from the weather
Thank you for linking back in, we did indeed have a lovely time and all went according to plan apart from the weather unfortunately but sure it’s the luck of the draw at this time of year.
Unfortunately the only negative I found was Emerald star’s hourly engine charge, having hired from other services providers where all that is required is the fuel to be topped up, I found...

The four visitors from France were very pleased with the experience
Everything was very good, thank you. The four visitors from France were very pleased with the experience, and they thought that the design of the boat was excellent.
I would definitely recommend Silver Lines for novices, as the young man who instructed us at the start, and who also helped us at the end, was very thorough and very pleasant
