Guest reviews - we love the feedback! We can wax Guest reviews - we love the feedback! We can wax lyrical all day about how good a #blueotter #boating experience is, but the best descriptions come from our guests. Our boat in #woottonwawen, #Warwickshire takes #narrowboaters through beautiful countryside with moorings just outside the pubs serving delicious food. What could be better? #canalboathire #canalholidays #canalsofengland #canalsofinstagram #bespokeboating

Leeds Liverpool Canal - Blue Otter Skipton update Leeds Liverpool Canal - Blue Otter Skipton update Due to low water levels all locks were closed from 5pm on August 17th. For our guests departing from Skipton, this means there is a round-trip 36 mile stretch of the canal that is lock free Skipton to Bingley top lock, turning around to go to Gargrave bottom lock and back to Skipton. This remains so until further notice from Canal & River Trust, with any change requiring a significant dose of rainfall. While not ideal, it is sufficient distance to enjoy a week-long holiday. We will be contacting our upcoming guests over the course of today. Thank you for your understanding, Ben & Liz
