About us

We are a family run narrowboat holiday business owned and operated by John and Lesley Yates. After many years of owning our own narrowboat and cruising the canals with our three children Louis, Bridie and Ellie we have now set up our own canalboat hire holiday business so we can bring to you this ultimate experience, with the knowledge that you are in the safest possible hands. We will be on call 24 hours a day and our aim is to offer our customers a service that is second to none. Our boats will always be immaculately presented, equipped and maintained but unfortunately we cannot guarantee the great British weather!

Please feel free to contact us at any time to discuss any queries or questions you may have and we will always take the time to talk to you. Between us we have a wealth of knowledge and love nothing more than having a chat about the canals and boats we are passionate about our business and our customers.

We are proud of our luxury narrowboats which we have personally designed with your comfort and enjoyment in mind. If you would like a personal visit to view our boats, reassure yourself how easy the boats are to handle or discuss any aspect of your holiday please don’t hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to oblige.

Thank you for taking time to visit our website and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind regards, John & Lesley
