    Great day, my little boy loved it here! Loads for kids to do, I was worried there might not be much he could go on as he’s only 3 but there was so much for him to do. We will definitely be revisiting

    What an amazing experience working these locks. I definitely recommend anyone who was on the canal to go here and enjoy doing the work that everyone has been doing for so many years. Take your kids, take your parents, take your friends, and go visit this amazing location.

    This was our second visit in our motorhome. Absolutely love the site as there's always something happening. Staff very friendly. Great towpath walks and lovely scenery. Supermarket close by and some great places to visit within a short drive.

    A lovely area of natural beauty which has been left to go wild. Wildlife clearly feels safe here as there's lot's of bird species on the lake, beef cattle graze the shoreline and birds adorn the woodlands.

    The circular walk round the lake is easy to follow, with few visitors. A hidden gem.

    Small eclectic museum near the centre of Whitchurch has a variety of interesting local features. Items about cheese making, militaria and clock making for example. The clock making exhibit is particularly informative and the pattern used to cast an 18 foot clock dial is some spectacle. The staff were helpful and informative. You need an hour to do it some justice, longer if the videos catch your attention. Be aware of opening days/times to avoid disappoinment.

    Ii pre-Covid times , we were on the Llangollen canal heading away from Whitchurch, when we came across this staircase of three locks. Lovely bit of engineering, lots of interesting little construction features and details. There was a very helpful volounteer on hand to assist us through the locks. Magic. On the way back we had to climb the locks again and this time stopped off for a light lunch at the wee cafe. Very nice, sitting out in the sun, watching other boats go through.
