Welcome to Bettisfield Boats.

Individually tailored canal boat holidays.

Bettisfield Boats is based in the small village of Bettisfield in Shropshire, situated on the popular and picturesque Llangollen canal.

We are a small family run business with over twenty five years of boating experience which means that we can offer you an individually tailored canal boat holiday to suit your needs.

We openly support the Considerate Boater principals and the Shropshire Union Canal Society.

Feel free to contact us with any questions that you may have. We're happy to help.

If you have holiday dates in mind, check our online availability calendar.


Nick and Emma take the tiller

Nick Markl and Emma Watson are delighted to announce that they will be taking over the helm of Bettisfield Boats from Ian and Michael's steady hands who are now taking well a deserved retirement.

Emma and Nick have previously worked for over 15 years in the leisure industry so really do understand just how important your holiday is. We both look forward to welcoming you aboard Heron or Kingfisher soon.
