Mr C from Ripon

The Llangollen Canal gives an excellent experience to features of canals, locks, lifting bridges, aqueducts and tunnels all in a relatively short distance.
Mrs S from Wokingham

There is beautiful scenery with all the spring colours and young animals in the fields, a very relaxing holiday and although we were never far away from civilisation it felt like being in a different world.
Mr C from Halesworth

A real chill out and relaxing holiday with lots of fresh air to recharge the batteries. Even now back at work I remember the beautiful scenery of travelling up the avenue of trees towards Ellesmere and it relaxes me straight away. I recommend everyone should have this type of holiday at least once in their lifetime!
Mrs M from Swansea

It is the best way to relax and unwind, and to see the beautiful British countryside!
Mr P from Widnes

Its a fantastic way to spend time with the whole family and all have fun, also to see the beauty which this country has to offer – and what a way to meet so many people!
Miss W from Doncaster

A fantastic holiday, I would recommend it to anyone!
Mr O from Dunscore

Idyllic scenery, locks, tunnels pubs and the highlight – crossing two aqueducts – the Llangollen has it all!
Mr M from New Milton

Having now had several barge/cruiser holidays, Llangollen Canal was undoubtedly the best. Scenery was fantastic and boat was excellent. Also, unlike most boatyards, at Maestermyn there seemed to be plenty of space to leave your car when on the canal. It was also good that we could park our car right next to the boat when unloading and loading. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
