We do not charge
for using this service.

In twenty years of canal boating we think this was
the most comfortable / well appointed boat we have
had and also the easiest to drive by far! Staff were
super at both arrival and departure.

Are the canal boats easy to operate?

Yes, the waters are mostly current free and cruising speed is only three to four miles per hour making driving a boat child's play. We give you full training and tuition on the canal boat and operating the locks - all included in the price you pay!

Do I need a license to operate the canal boat ?

No you will not need a license and you will be given all the training you need to get started.

Where can with stop with the canal boat?

You can moor anywhere along the canal where it is safe to do so and there are no signs prohibiting this ie : permanent mooring/private moorings. It is advised to moor adjacent to the towpath for easy access. Mooring pegs are provided on the boat if there are no tie off points. You also have the option of mooring in a marina if they offer vistor moorings. There may be a small charge for this.
