UK's very own 'little Venice' with clear waterways perfect for sunny summer days
There's no better way to discover a historic city than by drifting along its picturesque waterways in a traditional punt. And with the current warm and sunny weather, it's the perfect time to take to the waters in Kent. In Canterbury, a canal tour on the River Stour brings the city's rich history to life. Simply step aboard, sit back, and let the tranquil surroundings wash over you. As you glide along, your knowledgeable guide will regale you with tales of the area's highlights and lowlights, pointing out landmarks like historic bridges, old weaver's houses, theatres, monasteries, and secluded orchards. You'll also hear stories of a ill-fated priest who met a grisly end, a mill that went up in flames, and even catch a glimpse of a replica dunking chair - so be sure to behave yourself. One visitor raved about the experience, describing "crystal clear waters, beautiful buildings, plants and a really unique view passing under bridges and streets," reports Kent Live. The river ride lasts around 40-45 minutes. Canterbury Punting Company, a Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Award winner for 2024, uses traditional handcrafted wooden boats and employs local historians. With their extensive knowledge and punting skills, they're sure to charm you as you explore the city's waterways. Canterbury Punting Company boasts an impressive 4.8-star rating from a whopping 1,388 Tripadvisor reviews. A recent review this month raved: "What a fantastic experience and led by a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide/punter - not sure what correct terminology is - by the name of Freddy." The reviewer continued: "He kept us thoroughly entertained with his tales of yonder whilst on the history boat ride. It was a lovely experience and so relaxing and informative. Can't wait to try the nature tour next." They also added: "I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to do something a bit different and to see Canterbury from the River Stour." Another glowing review from May shared: "Sebastian was a very talented storyteller and informed us of the magical world that is Canterbury. "The tour was relaxing and enjoyable, and my family thoroughly enjoyed it. I highly recommend this to any family who wants a day out relaxing on the river."

(Image: Linwater Caravan Park) The park currently holds an impressive 4.8 rating on Tripadvisor, with recent reviews praising the peaceful location, spotless facilities, and thoughtful amenities. One reviewer shared: 'The caravan park is in a quiet location (there's some aircraft noise but no busy roads nearby). We stayed for a week in one of the self-catering lodges. The lodge was clean, comfortable and well equipped, a proper home from home. This is the second time we've stayed here and will definitely book again.' They added that Edinburgh was easily accessible by park and ride just a few minutes away, and recommended a visit to the nearby Jupiter Artland. Another guest who stayed with their touring caravan praised the calm atmosphere and facilities, writing: 'It was pretty quiet, people respecting the noise restriction times. "The shower block was spotless when we arrived… only one negative about the site itself and that is the shower timer, water stays on for about 30 seconds so you have to be quick or have a shower buddy with you! "Other than that, I'd give the site 5 stars. The amenities were amazing, the fact they supply a kitchen with a microwave is something we've not come across before and is perfect for those in tents.' They also highlighted the park's location as ideal for visiting landmarks like The Kelpies, the Falkirk Wheel and the Forth Bridge. Another review, from a campervan guest, added: 'We loved it and would absolutely come back. Beautiful shower facilities! The shared kitchen (also beautiful) had so much information about how to get into Edinburgh and local takeaways. 100 per cent would recommend. We drove to the tram stop (Islington?) and got the tram into the city from there, free parking and super easy.'
