The Blackwater Meadow Marina is ideally situated at the middle of
the 46 mile long Llangollen Canal (now in the top 100 holiday
destinations worldwide!) – a canal experience bettered
nowhere with plenty of historic structures along your route.
The most spectacular
is the
Pontcysyllte Aqueduct built in 1805, which
crosses over the River Dee some 130 feet
below. Other spectacles include the Cherk
Aqueduct and Chirk Castle – walk on to the Horseshoe Waterfalls
at the head of the canal at Llangollen or take a trip on the steam
railway. Beautiful scenery, picture postcard
villages and plenty to do including the 21 locks and Blackwater Meadow make a centre for
canal holidays difficult to better.
