Venetian Canal Boat Holidays
Shropshire Union




We have been cruising the canals for years in our own boat and love the tranquillity of the English countryside when we can get away. As part of the wider family of Venetian Hireboats, Dave the dog loves everyone and enjoys his role as Chief Rabbit spotter and everyone’s best friend, whist we love bacon butties and canal side pubs.

Here at Venetian Hire boats we love our boats. We love the layout, the comfort, the cleanliness and the fabulous night’s sleep we get. We love the big king size beds with fluffy pillows and snugly duvet. We are a family run business and so work very hard to present our boats in the manner that we would want to find them. We hope you love them as much as we do.

Venetian is located in the perfect place to start your canal holiday. We are on the Middlewich arm of the Shropshire Union canal, so you have more options than any other hire boat company in the UK. Direct from the Venetian Marina you can access the Shropshire Union, the Trent and Mersey and the Llangollen and Montgomery canals where you can cross the breathtaking Chirk Aqueduct.
