Welcome to canaltrip.co.uk.

Eirlys is the Welsh word for "snowdrop". The narrowboat Eirlys has been a regular sight on the Llangollen canal for over a decade.

Brightly decorated in the traditional canalboat style, Eirlys can seat over 50 passengers in comfort - ideal for large coach parties.

Peter Jones has a long history of narrowboating. He has been navigating on the Llangollen Canal for almost 20 years, so you know you are in capable hands on a trip in his restaurant boat Eirlys. As you drift serenely along the canal at walking pace, you can enjoy the fine cuisine with the spectacular backdrop of North Wales' magnificent scenery. An interesting commentary accompanying your trip gives insight into local history and the general history of canals in the UK. These trips come highly recommended.
