Competition | Win a Boating Break worth £1,000

Iona Bower March 16, 2022

Slow down the pace a knot or two with a luxury boating break that takes in the UK sights from a
new vantage point

How much do you know about Britain’s canals? Boating holidays bring a whole new perspective to the UK countryside, giving you access to waterside towns and villages, a quieter way to travel and a whole lot of wildlife along the way. A real departure from everyday life, it can feel like a big deal, but with ABC Boat Hire you can dip your toe in with a short boating break.

DISCOVER THE UK’S WATERWAYS

Giving you the opportunity to explore the UK’s best inland waterways and adopt a slower pace of life, a boating holiday is an idea worth getting on board with. All ABC boats come with comfortable berths and modern amenities – including on-board WiFi. With almost 200 boats, 15 start points and over 1,500 miles of waterways to explore, it’s time to start planning your best holiday yet.

WIN A BOATING BREAK

One lucky reader of The Simple Things can win a short break with ABC Boat Hire. You can pick your route from selected start bases throughout England or Wales, and bring up to seven guests on your eight-berth boat. Choose from either a three-night weekend break or a four-night midweek escape. It’s a great prize worth up to £1,000, and all you need to do is start planning your next adventure… For more info, visit abcboathire.com or follow on Instagram: @abcboathire

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
