John Orentas Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Hi Phisy. If it is more or less your first time I would have a few days in tranquil Cheshire, not too many locks. The Macclesfield would be good. Macclesfield Narrowboats, Heritage Boats, Braidbar Boats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dor Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Empress in Nantwich do short term hires, and they seem ot have some spare boats at the moment. http://www.empressholidays.co.uk/indexwin.html Also Chas Harden at Beeston if he has a spare boat. http://www.chashardern.co.uk/welcome.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 For value, Chas Hardern (http://www.chashardern.co.uk/) will be perfect, although his boats will probably all be booked for the next few weeks, worth a try though! Also Claymoore URL above! Andersen Boats at Middlewich (http://www.andersenboats.com/) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phsycicdreamer Posted June 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Many thanks for the advice guys. Not many locks sounds nice so i think we may be looking at the Macclesfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
