Andersen Boats
About
Andersen Boats brings four decades of canal‑holiday expertise to the picturesque town of Middlewich. Situated beside a trio of locks, the fleet of narrowboats offers a relaxed, self‑contained travel experience across England and Wales. From the world‑heritage Llangollen Canal with its iconic Pontcysyllte Aqueduct to historic routes through Cheshire, fishermen, walkers and families alike find something to savour. Every holiday includes all fuel, accommodation, equipment and free on‑board parking, with optional pet‑friendly upgrades. Friendly staff provide on‑board guidance on lock operation and sailing, making it an ideal outing for beginners and seasoned water‑way travellers. The 2‑week getaway averages three hours of lock‑handling, but can easily be extended to a longer adventure, ensuring visitors leave with fond memories of Britain’s tranquil waterways.
