Yorkshire Waterways Boat Holidays

Hoseasons provide a variety of different boat holidays along the marvellous waterways of Yorkshire. The rugged beauty of Yorkshire is ever present, as are the constant reminders that the purpose of the canal was to feed the industrial revolution. Boat holidays in Yorkshire can take place in a range of locations such as Wakefield, Leeds and Halifax. We have a boat hire location in Silsden, a town located on the Leeds Liverpool Canal and the ideal starting point for your trip. There is much to see and do when on boat holidays along Yorkshire's waterways; from the Royal Armouries in Leeds to the fascinating museums of York.

Boating Holidays along Yorkshire's Waterways

Boating holidays in Yorkshire are a fabulous way to tour this fascinating county. Narrowboats allow holidaymakers to slow their pace and really appreciate the stunning scenery that surrounds canals. As well as peaceful meandering canals throughout the county, there are also some impressive lochs within Yorkshire, most notably the Bingley five rise loch of the Leeds Liverpool Canal. Another noteworthy attraction for those on boating holidays in Yorkshire is the town of Saltaire. This purpose built town was constructed for the employers of mill owner Sir Titus Salt and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With so much to see and do in Yorkshire, boat hire can be considered a brilliant way to see attractions and towns whilst allowing travellers to completely relax and recuperate.

Yorkshires Waterways


Whether you want a peaceful break or a more active canal boat holiday, on Yorkshire's waterways you're sure to find something for everyone – landscapes of unrivalled scenic grandeur, exciting locks and fascinating reminders of the north's rich industrial heritage as well as a diverse array of attractions from the Eureka science centre at Halifax to Wakefield Cathedral.

The Rochdale Canal allows you to enjoy the romantic scenery of the Pennines as your canal boat carries you gently up the Calder Valley to the small market town of Hebden Bridge. Further on, the canal climbs steeply to the highest point of the network.

Part canal, part river, and with some push-button locks, the Calder & Hebble Navigation offers a relaxing canal boat holiday, stretching 21 miles between Wakefield and the attractive market town of Sowerby Bridge – a centre for canal boat hire. Make time to visit Huddersfield, and the Henry Moore Sculpture Centre, Royal Armouries and Granary Wharf craft shops in Leeds, or take the train to York to explore its Minster and Viking and Railway Museums.

Climbing dramatically from Leeds through the Pennines, the Leeds & Liverpool Canal cuts across the moors and through a long tunnel before descending into Lancashire. On a canal boat holiday of a week or more, you'll marvel at the famous Bingley Five Rise lock staircase and breathtaking views. And energetic crews will want to take their canal boats onto the Huddersfield Narrow Canal to enjoy the highest stretch of canal and longest tunnel in Britain, and explore the Standedge Tunnel Visitor Centre.
