The Easter Historic Boat Gathering at the National Waterways Museum was wonderful to visit at the weekend.

There are lots of events throughout the year on the canals, such as Steam Boat Lift & Visitor Centre in May, Audlem Festival of Transport in July, and Middlewich Folk & Boat Festival in June.

With so much going on, check out our boats for holiday hire, and cruise along to your nearest event.
