Carrying up to seven people, self drive boats
make an ideal opportunity to bring a picnic and
enjoy a relaxing time exploring the watery
delights of this lock-free Canal. For the more
adventurous or energetic, try our rowing boat
hire. Silently float along the canal under your
own steam, revisiting more peaceful days
gone-by. The rowing boat will seat up to 6
persons and makes a fun filled and memorable day
out for all the family. Buoyancy Aids are
