Covid-19 (Coronavirus) Update

March 2021 Coronavirus update

We plan to re-open all the Marinas on 12th April for guests from a single household in line with the governments latest roadmap, but as always we will work within the government restrictions should this change.

On 17th May the plan is to open up the boats for up to 6 guests (different households) or from 2 households. Then from 21st June hopefully there will be no restrictions.

Many of our boats come with a Covid guarantee that if you cannot take your holiday due to government restrictions then you will get a full refund or you can rebook if you choose. Please contact us to find out which have this guarantee.

January 2021 Coronavirus update

We are hoping that all UK customers will be able to cruise on our Canalboats from March onwards and our Booking office remains open.

When you search for holidays on our website you will see a button called Coronavirus - book with confidence - that you can click on by each holiday, which gives you full details of the Coronavirus guarantee offered when you book.
