I've spent a bit of time around there.

I would say that you need nice weather to enjoy a boating trip there. The scenery is nice and I'm sure you can find some pleasant places to stop off at for a meal and beers.......
Very limited night life from what I have seen.
Guess a lot of it depends on what you want from it ?

However, if it rains I would imagine it would be suicidal 😆

Done this a few times when my children were younger.Its become very expensive now, also in july and August it,s like M25 on water.
If you want a mooring near a pub then you will have to think about it around lunchtime.

Good choice for a quiet holiday. True that you need to get in early if you want one of the best moring places. Can work well for the whole family - peaceful enough for grandparents, enough variety to keep kids interested.

I remember being taken on one of these when I was a kid. It was great for about ten minutes, after that I was bored stiff. My dad seemed to enjoy it though and would happily moor up outside a pub every night and get plenty of ale down his neck, and good luck to him.
