Mr H from San Pedro Garza Garcia

We spent a week on a narrowboat and did the Cheshire Ring. It was our first time and we all feel that it was our best family holiday to date!
Miss T from Milnthorpe

We (a family of 5) have just completed the Cheshire Ring in one week. I wouldn’t recommend it for the novice boater as some days we were cruising for 12 hours doing 27 locks in one particular day through Manchester. Having said that we thoroughly enjoyed our week and have come back feeling very happy with our achievement.
Mrs S from Lichfield

A lovely, laid back holiday to enjoy with family or friends. A great way to get a different perspective on the countryside.
Mr E from Audlem

As an activity holiday with stops at a different pub every night for good food and beer, this can’t be beaten.
