Bradford-On-Avon Marina

Bradford-on-Avon Marina sits on the Kennet and Avon Canal in Wiltshire, serving as a well-positioned base for exploring one of England's most scenic waterway corridors.

Anglo Welsh Waterways Holidays operates narrowboat hire from the marina on Trowbridge Road, making it a practical launch point for both beginners and experienced boaters.

From here, paddlers and boaters can head west toward the UNESCO World Heritage city of Bath or east toward the dramatic Caen Hill lock flight near Devizes.

A popular beginner round trip runs approximately 26 miles to Foxhangers and back, passing through 12 locks. The surrounding area also supports walking and cycling along the towpath, and the marina vicinity hosts independent shops, tearooms, and pubs.
