Hilperton Marina day boat hire from our most southerly base in Trowbridge is well located on the Kennet and Avon Canal, often considered one of the very best for natural beauty and wildlife. Head West towards Limpley Stoke or East towards Seend Cleeve!

What to expect on your boat hire day

  • Once you’ve decided on one of the day canal boat hire options, you can collect your boat at 9.30am.
  • Then, after check-in, one of the trained engineers will show you around the boat, to ensure you're well versed before they let you begin your day boating adventure.
  • After a day of cruising along the beautiful waterways, you'll head back to the base ready to hand the boat back by 4.30pm.

Explore the beautiful waterways' wildlife

The waterways are teeming with creatures waiting to be discovered and what better way to observe them than from the comfort of a slow cruising narrow boat?

It may seem unusual for a man made structure to become a natural habitat, however wildlife surveys have proved that this is the case.

Even throughout the most urban of areas, these simulated wetlands attract all different kinds of wildlife, some of which you might not expect!
