Is a family run operation, proud to offer a choice of 3 very different small group escorted holidays.

Across the countryside there is an intricate network of Backwaters and Byways that pass through some of the most varied and scenic countryside to be found in The British Isles.

The passage of time has mellowed these historic thoroughfares and they now provide the perfect way to relax and escape the hectic pace of life in the 21st Century. Down isolated lanes and beneath hump back bridges to which the speeding motorist gives not another thought is a world full of interest, activity and colour that has little in common with cars commuters or computers. This is your chance to enjoy a superior holiday in the rural lands of England, Ireland and Wales.

Walking, Driving and Bygone
Times holidays throughout
England, Ireland and Wales.

Take a step back to a bygone era when the only horsepower to be seen was one on four legs. Join us on Sian, our specially built narrowboat butty, for peaceful days cruising through the beautiful scenery of the Montgomery canal, Mid-Wales and wonderful evenings spent ashore at your choice of excellent en-suite accommodation. We can cater for up to 12 guests on our shortbreaks and walking holidays.

What better way to experience and explore the varied landscape of the inland waterways than by the comfort of our traditional pair of hotelboats, Rose & Karnataka. With full ensuite facilities in every cabin, experienced crew, large viewing windows and a passion for delicious food, we provide up to eight guests with the comfort and service one would expect in a well-run family hotel, but with a different view from your cabin window each morning.

Explore those hidden parts of Britain with the help of our knowledgeable guide, Stephen Rees-Jones. Learn the secrets, history and folklore of villages in Ireland or pretty Cotswold towns; walk the Lake District or explore the Yorkshire Dales. Carrying no more than 8 passengers our minibus can take you down country lanes and Byways that larger groups can only pass by.
Our spring and autumn schedules offer something to satisfy even the most curious of travellers.
