5 star customer stories
“There’s no single reason why we have returned to Beacon Park Boats 13 times. A week on one of their boats is a non-negotiable for us each year, but for SO many different reasons”
“The service, reception and communication/instruction along with the quality and presentation of the Beacon Park Boats, you would be very fortunate to match elsewhere but highly unlikely to exceed.”
“We’ve returned to Beacon Park Boats every year since we ‘discovered’ them in 2010. All are imaginatively fitted out, with the highest standards of decoration, comfort and equipment.”
