Canal boat hire on the Inland Waterways of England and the UK is a civilised adventure; civilised because you carry all your home comforts with you; and an adventure because around every bend there is something new and surprising to discover and enjoy with your family and friends.
The modern canal boat for hire is easy to handle and of course, everything happens at a relaxed pace. You will be given all the instruction you need by the boat hire company and will soon head off on your very own Midlands adventure like a seasoned boater. Your hire boat will be fully equipped with every modern amenity, so self-catering canal boat hire becomes a pleasure, but there are also many canalside pubs, once essential 'staging posts' for the working boats of the last century, which are now popular watering holes for holiday boaters; and most offer great food at reasonable prices. Boat hire has long been a popular activity in England and more recently canal boat hire has become even more popular than the Norfolk Broads. There are waterways all around the UK , but most are centred mainly in the midlands of England , canal boat hire combines all the adventure of discovering new places along with the fun of driving your own boat.
