We look forward to welcoming you at the start of your canal vacation.
Overseas visitors make up about one third of all our holiday boat hire customers and quite a few of them return year after year.
You can be assured of a warm welcome when you arrive at Rose Narrowboats. We are well located in the centre of the canal system, in a very attractive part of England with excellent transport connections to and from the major airports (London Heathrow, Birmingham International and Manchester). If you require any further help on how to get to us please do not hesitate to contact us. |
We have a good range of quality Narrowboats from 2 to 10 berth which can be hired for 2 nights right through to 6 months all year.
We also have a day boat for 12 people available from 10am to 7pm (or dusk if earlier) from April to October. Towels are provided free of charge for overseas visitors. |
All our boats are self drive but we go through comprehensive training with you so even if you have never done boating before we will have you confident enough to take the boat out in a short time however if you would like to do a bit of homework before you arrive you can check out the Boaters Handbook and the Boating DVD's on our website for further information.

We have an excellent choice of routes, most of which offer “a little bit of everything” – locks, tunnels, quaint villages with canal side pubs, and beautiful countryside with lots of wildlife, making us the ideal starting point for one of the best ways to see England – by boat.
If you have particular places you would like to see or events you would like to experience, please contact us – we’ll be happy to help with detailed planning for your trip. |
Long Term Hire, 4 weeks or more, can be a great way to see England and Wales by boat with lots of interesting places to visit. Taking your accommodation with you, so no need to keep packing and unpacking from destination to destination as you travel around the country.
We hope this page helps with organising your holiday with us but if you require any further information please contact us |
