An ideal base from which to explore the beautiful canals of North-west England. The Cheshire Ring, the Four Counties Ring, the magnificent Macclesfield, the historic Caldon and the serene Shropshire Union Canals offer some of the finest cruises available. All the boats offer a high level of comfort and equipment, with roomy bow cockpits with seating and large decks with stern rails. New boats added to fleet in 2007 and 2008.

You start your holiday from Bridge Boatyard from the very heart of the peaceful and picturesque Fenland waterways – the fleet is based in Ely, overlooked by its magnificent and world-famous cathedral. The varied choice of well-fitted and laid out boats sleep from 2 to 6 people, and the range includes traditional styles as well as the racier sports cruiser style.
