8 Berth Canal Narrowboat Holidays for Large Families and Groups
The Perfect Group Escape
A narrowboat holiday is a fantastic way to spend quality time with loved ones. Whether you’re planning a family adventure, a reunion with friends, or celebrating a special occasion, life on the water offers the perfect mix of relaxation and exploration. Cruise at your own pace, moor up to visit charming villages and enjoy the tranquillity of the countryside as you travel together.
Spacious 8-Berth Narrowboats
Our 8-berth narrowboats are designed with comfort and convenience in mind, ensuring there’s plenty of room for larger families and groups. The boats feature cosy sleeping areas for up to eight people, a fully equipped kitchen to prepare meals for everyone, a comfortable lounge and dining space for socialising, and modern bathroom facilities. It’s your floating home away from home, with everything you need for a stress-free and enjoyable journey.
Dog-Friendly Holidays
We know that dogs are part of the family too, which is why many of our narrowboats are dog-friendly. Bring your furry companion along for the adventure and explore the waterways together. Scenic towpaths, open countryside and dog-friendly pubs along the route ensure your pet will have just as much fun as you do.
Explore Britain’s Waterways Together
With a wide variety of routes to choose from, there’s a perfect canal journey for every group. Explore peaceful countryside, historic market towns, and cultural landmarks, stopping wherever and whenever you like. Popular routes include the tranquil Llangollen Canal, the historic canals of Stratford-upon-Avon and the stunning Kennet & Avon Canal near Bath. Each route offers new experiences and endless opportunities for adventure.
No Experience Needed
If you’ve never been on a narrowboat before, there’s no need to worry. Our friendly team will provide full training and guidance before you set off. We’ll show you everything you need to know, from steering the boat to navigating locks, so you can relax and enjoy your time on the water.
