Hi there Funsters... I'm know from previous questions that you've been pretty helpful - so a new query to post... Does anyone know of sites with access to canoeing water? We've just bought an inflatable canoe and are bursting to try it out. We are total canoe novices so flat water with easy access is probably advisable.
We are going to try C&CC at Keswick but would like to have some alternatives. We're in a 27' RV, so accessibility to the site for that is also a factor. And smaller sites or pub sites are preferable.
So, there you have our latest conundrum.. can anyone help?
Until now I always assumed it was possible to canoe on virtually any lake, canal or river. How ignorant I was! I now know, after many hours on t'internet, that England & Wales have the worst river/lake access in the world. We have joined the British Canoe Union which gives canal access, now need to find sites on canals/lakes or flat rivers... any other advice for paddling novices would be appreciated too...
