We cruise past Campbell Park, Pennyland Basin and Linford Wharf where the Newport Pagnell Canal once branched off. On the way you can spot at least four of the eight artworks on the Gyosei Art Trail, and catch a glimpse of the newly-restored Victorian Brick Kilns where local clay was used to make bricks that were then transported by boat to nearby building sites.
We arrive at the waterside mooring for Great Linford Manor Park, which has newly restored ponds and other features to explore. Combine this cruise with a picnic to make a truly great day out!
There is a card-only Galley Bar on board serving hot, cold and alcoholic drinks, plus a few snacks.
Note: This is a one-way cruise – why not incorporate it with a canalside walk? Or arrange your own transport. The route from Great Linford to Campbell Wharf is an easy 3 miles (1 to 1 ½ hours) – download a Self-Guided Walk leaflet from our website for directions. You could take an early walk to Campbell Park from Great Linford and cruise back, or cruise to Great Linford and walk back later to Campbell Wharf.
