I've been on quite a few boating holidays over the years, with the usual array of canals, rivers and The Broads all experienced.
But we now have two children and I'm wondering how practical it is to take them on a holiday afloat in the UK?
They are five and nearly three. My first worry is obviously their safety.
For this reason, while I know you have to be very careful when water is involved, are there any particular routes which you think are more child-friendly than others, ie less locks, ease of getting on and off boats etc?
Plus are there any companies who are particularly geared up for families with young children like our's?
And a final thought. Will any of these companies actually be operating in the October half term, or is that too late in the year to hire a boat?
Hope you can help me.
Marty.
