four counties & Llangollen in 2 weeks?

[Woodsy]

Once again thank you for the above advice and comments, we both enjoyed ourselves.

We have just returned the boat back to the hire base having completed both the Four Counties (anti-clockwise) and the trip to Llangollen, we managed to spend a day at Llangollen looking at the sites and still made it back with time to spare.

Now for next year..........

We just met a Blackprince boat out for a week, they had done the Four Counties ring and were going up the Caldon

Agree about doing/seeing the final stretch of the Llangollen.

But we had such a great mooring spot at Trefor that we decided to walk to Llangollen (and back) stopping off at the Sun Inn for a pint, enjoying all the views, and witnessing at least two episodes of canal rage where it gets particularly narrow!

Each to their own ...... why not do one or the other and soak in the scenery then enjoy the other route another year?

 

Alternatively add three days to your holiday and squeeze in London and The Thames as well?

 

Whatever enjoy your holiday.

 

Edited twice times because the site keeps duplicating every line.

Don't know if the above post is in response to my original query, if so we have already completed it.

We have been considering the "Grand Ring" for a couple of years now (was temporarily disappointed that hire boats were barred from the Thames - now lifted), so it is back on the cards again, however we are also considering incorporating visiting steam rail museum (Stourport /SVR -etc) as well, so lots of options for next year.
