Kennet & Avon Canal

From the historic Bath city centre to rural Wiltshire this canal has something for everyone

Welcome to Foxhangers

Foxhangers is a family owned and run business that has been offering self-drive narrowboat holidays on the Kennet & Avon Canal since 1997. We believe in leaving nothing to chance, we are small enough to care personally and big enough to be thoroughly professional in everything we do. Our friendly and experienced team are 100% focused on providing great canal holidays with customer service that exceeds your expectations.

What our customers say..

This was our second visit to Foxhangers and it was even better than the first. No mean feat. Booking on their website was easy. A comprehensive confirmation letter followed shortly after with all the information one could possibly require. A phone call a couple of days before our start date confirming the bedding requirements was a nice touch. Check in at reception was swift and efficient. Boat handover was rapid and we were soon on our way. Arctic Fox was well equipped, we lacked nothing! Everything worked and the fat onboard information folder, including a detailed list of all the canalside hostelries, was excellent. Captain: Nick & Gill Fuller
This was our first canal boat holiday and me, my husband, children and parents all thoroughly enjoyed it. We can’t praise Foxhangers enough. All the staff we dealt with from start to finish were really friendly and helpful, we had all the information and instruction we needed and the boat was extremely well equipped. We would not hesitate to use this company again and cannot recommend them enough. Captain: Helen Davies
I would like to thank you for a great introduction to the world of canal boat holidays. The service from Foxhangers was superb with a great introduction and instruction by your staff.The boat was well equipped, clean and provided a comfortable relaxing experience for all. The scenery along the canal was breathtaking and there were plenty of superb watering holes along the route for the boat and its occupants. I would definitely recommend this holiday and next time will bring my dog Winston on board as well! Captain: Dr Martin Rich
Absolutely fantastic weekend. We spent the weekend on Foxtrot which was very well kitted out & reliable. My brother and I plus two friends (all experienced canal boaters) left Foxhangers on a Friday evening and had a very enjoyable cruise up to the Aqueduct just beyond Bradford-On-Avon (including a night out in Bath via Rail), The boat was fantastic and Foxhangers were brilliant, we couldn't have asked for more. My brother enjoyed a final night fishing near the Devizes Camping and Caravanning Club and the Stout is interesting at The Three Magpies pub. A+++ We'll definitely book again. Captain: Mr Castle
My family of 7 took a week cruising the Kennet & Avon Canal. This was my fifth venture into the canals and we were lucky to choose a week of fantastic weather. We were so glad we selected a Foxhangers canal boat: mechanically it performed exceptionally well and there were absolutely no operational problems throughout the whole week; the boat was clean and very well fitted with all the equipment we could need and every item functioned properly. The beds were comfortable; the lounge was a good size and the bathing facilities as good as they can get on a canal boat. I have absolutely no reservations in recommending Foxhangers to the 'beginner' or the experienced. With thanks for making our holiday one to remember for all the right reasons, Captain: The Palmer party

Canal Holidays Guide to the Kennet & Avon Canal

One of the loveliest waterways in Britain, the Kennet & Avon meanders 86 miles between Bristol and Reading, passing through the historic city of Bath.

The route includes the fully restored Caen Hill flight of 29 locks at Devizes.

Cruising the Canal

The Kennet and Avon Canal opened in 1810, and after restoration was re-opened by HM The Queen in 1990.

It passes beautiful, tranquil and unspoilt scenery with an abundance of plant and wild life, through bustling market towns, picturesque villages and past historic monuments.

Frequently there are inviting canal side pubs offering lunch or supper.

The waterway includes the Georgian splendour of the City of Bath and the pastoral pleasures of rolling Berkshire and Wiltshire, with unique architectural and engineering features of majestic aqueducts and bridges.

Starting at Brunel's historic Floating Harbour at Bristol, close to the city's theatres, shops and restaurants, the route first takes the tidal River Avon to Bath. This spectacular World Heritage City has Georgian architecture and Roman remains including the famous Baths, Abbey and many historic attractions.

Cruise through the dramatic valley of the River Avon over the Dundas Aqueduct and on to Bradford on Avon, a pretty small town with a fascinating history. Then on through rolling farmland to the famous flight of locks (29 locks in 2.25 miles) at Caen Hill.

These locks take a day to ascend or descend! Passage needs to be booked in advance, although water shortages are not now a problem.

Then pass through historic Devizes, home of the Kennet & Avon Canal Trust, with its canal shop, to Crofton, home of the famous working steam beam engine.

The handsome town of Hungerford, has centre of town moorings, convenient for browsing around the many antique shops.

The canal continues to Newbury, where you will find a touch of Venetian charm, and on to meet the River Thames just after Reading.

Customer Comments

Read what some of our previous clients say about the Kennet & Avon Canal.

"Pewsey to Bath and return on the Kennet and Avon Canal. Wonderful canal scenery, terrific locks, especially Devizes. Canal from Pewsey to Bath and return, passing initially through picturesque rolling fields, past the white horse at Pewsey, through small quaint villages, to the Caan Hill locks at Devizes." LO, UK

"Excellent holiday - we went from Bristol along the Kennet and Avon Canal through Bath and Bradford on Avon to the base of the Caen Hill flight just short of Devices - and return. Lots of interesting and historic places." FJ, Australia

"What a sight and experience navigating the 27 locks down the hill to Foxhangers. The many canal side inns offered sustaining refreshments and jovial hospitality along the way, and the forest and rolling hills with manor houses from Bradford on Avon to the two aqueducts at Avoncliff and Dundas were breathtaking." PB, UK

"Bath - what can one say, it is awe inspiring to approach by canal, through the magnificent bridges and tunnels with the majestic sandstone buildings forming a backdrop all around. We spent a whole day exploring Bath, and reliving the same experiences of wonderment of our first visit in 1972! This was our first canal trip, but we are hooked! Already planning the next one!"

Boating for all

Since 1988 Bruce Boats of Great Bedwyn, near Marlborough in Wiltshire has been delivering great days out and self steer holidays for people who are less mobile, frequently wheel chair users, or who are disadvantaged, together with their families or friends. Four of our boats are wide beam, therefore roomy and are fully accessible with lifts fore and aft, full size domestic kitchen and fully accessible bathroom. We also have a traditional narrowboat for hire to community groups.

Bruce Boats are part of the Kennet and Avon Canal Trust, which is a charity.  We are run by volunteers.  Our income helps operate and maintain our fleet of boats and the facilities at Great Bedwyn Wharf .

Enjoy the canal experience

Our fleet of wide-beam canal boats provide lots of space for wheelchair users. Lifts enable easy access to the decks and once in the saloon and sleeping areas you will find a fully fitted kitchen, accessible showers and toilets, good accommodation and, if available, a hospital bed

You can learn to self-drive a boat for a week or more and explore the attractions of this famous canal. Families, care homes and Rotary groups often hire a fully crewed boat for a day trip with groups of up to 12.

The day was made for us by the crew, who are an absolute credit to the Canal Trust. From the moment we arrived on board, we were made to feel welcome, and included in the day. We are not the quietest family, and with four loud youngsters things could have been “trying”. But from the outset, your crew were wonderful with them talking to them, encouraging them to help out on board and on the lock procedures, but always with a careful eye on their safety. We found them personable, interesting, friendly and eager to give us a day to remember….and they certainly did that.

I wanted to send you an email after our trip last week, to say that we all thoroughly enjoyed the boat trip! It was one of the best weekends we’ve spent as a family together, and everyone really enjoyed the teamwork and bonding. We’ve all agreed that we’d like to do another one next year.

We were made to feel very welcome from the start and Peter was great. In fact, all the volunteers were lovely. We hired the Hannah from 29th June -6th July and she was great for us really clean and Mum especially appreciated the lift.

Also thank you for the helpful information you sent to us which helped us prepare for the holiday and my brothers found the training weekend a real help.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone in the team and particularly Martin and Steve who were so helpful on Friday.

We had a great weekend and were all very impressed with not only the equipment but also the layout and thought that had gone into the design of “Diana” – everything worked brilliantly for Berkeley.

Your email reminded me that I meant to contact you and say how very much we enjoyed our weekend on the Diana. The weather was in our favour and everyone had a great time. The boat is so well equipped and spotlessly clean.

We had a wonderful holiday which was particularly good for my wheel chaired wife. The barge was even better than I had expected with lifts, space and disabled lavatory. It was also very easy to handle and steered well. The bow thruster made mooring so easy. Everything on the boat worked perfectly. Well done the volunteers.

Each boat has accessible wheelchair access, lifts, large shower areas and toilets. A full-sized kitchen is fully equipped with gas oven and microwave along with a fridge and good storage.
