A full double bed on a narrowboat? Yes, that's possible!

Did you know, from our Marina you can sail past one of the UK's most iconic stadiums?
What's stopping you?

Sailing through Worsley is beautiful 🥰

Manchester is one of the many places you can reach along Britain's canals.
Only a day (and a half) sailing from our marina, we count ourselves pretty lucky to be so close.
This photo was taken today at the magnificent Town Hall.
... The canals also go past both Old Trafford and the Etihad - but we all know there is only one worth seeing 😏
Which football ground would you head to?

We had special guests over from the USA over Easter. What beautiful weather we had to show them. I love the pattern in the sky!

Follow in Tim and Pru's footsteps and sail across the Barton Swing Aqueduct.
We still have availability for this summer, but selling out quickly.

In June 2018, Timothy West and Prunella Scales joined us to film the final series of Great Canal Journeys.
This photo was taken after filming had finished up in Castlefield, Manchester.
We really did have the best time with them, they are so lovely!
