Yes, the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal in South Wales is one of the most beautiful cruising waterways in the UK.All of the canal can be cruised easily in a very relaxed week and it is rarely busy, even at the height of the season.

On The Kennet and Avon Canal, Bradford-on-Avon is very nice, a great place to walk and watch boats in the evening. And there's a very nice walk along the towpath at Bath.
