Around & About
There is so much to discover from our doorstep
Whilst the surroundings of our beautiful Marina are truly remarkable, what makes Tattenhall Marina such a great place is the variety and diversity afforded by the local area.
Our locality will keep you coming back time and time again. One of the most popular attractions is the Four Counties Ring, a cruising route which takes in 92 locks in 97 miles and takes around 60 hours to complete.
As the name suggests, the route takes in four of England’s counties so you’ll see a good mix of the North West countryside, pretty villages and industrial architecture. Cruising for 8 hours a day, the ring can be completed in a week, but to make the most of this spectacular cruising route, we recommend a full two week excursion.
There is also access to several other popular canal routes from the Shropshire Union Canal on which we are based, including the Llangollen canal and the Trent and Mersey.
Workshop & Chandlery
We understand that keeping your boat in great condition and water-worthy is your top priority
Our on-site workshop is run by Keel Boat services and is open Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 5pm, assisting you with repairs, modifications and advice on your boat. For all workshop enquiries, please contact Karl Heywood on 07770 576288.
