Marina Retreats can now be booked in the idyllic surroundings of Aqueduct Marina in the beautiful Cheshire countryside beside the Shropshire Union Canal. Accommodation is available in one of the 10 glamping tents, or, for those who want to use their own tent, caravan or motorhome, visitors can book a pitch on the 100-acre site.

 

New for the 2025 season is an improved toilet block equipped with eight shower/toilet rooms. Pot washing facilities have also been added to make stays on the site as comfortable as possible. But the retreats are not just aimed at providing comfortable accommodation; they also give guests access to new nature trails around the site, and for those dogs that need some TLC, the site now has a dog washing facility.

 

Guests who want to make the most of their stay and experience the enjoyment of a trip on the Shropshire Union Canal two new electric day boats are available for hire. These new boats provide a quiet way to enjoy the tranquility of the nearby canal.

 

Super Saturday Activities have also been organised, with archery, axe throwing and canoeing on offer for those who want to make the most of their stay. Bushcraft skills will also be on offer. And for those who want to sit back and enjoy a drink or meal from the Galley cafe, there is the added attraction of live music on Saturday afternoons, starting in June, provided by local musicians.

 

The new Marina Retreats aim to provide something for everyone and to give access to the waterways and the countryside to boaters and non-boaters alike.
