Unwind from the stresses of modern life. Canals are Britain at its quietest and most laid-back. Hiring a narrowboat is one way to go, then there are canoes, coracles, bikes, canalside camping, hotels, B&Bs, waterside inns, historic rental cottages, working volunteer holidays and loads more inventive ways to enjoy a special break ~ or simply pull on your boots and go for a walk.
