We are a registered charity and operate three large canal boats from a beautifully landscaped boatyard on the Grand Union Canal just to the south of Hemel Hempstead in Hertfordshire. Our mission is to promote well-being by providing affordable canal boat trips particularly for the disadvantaged. As well as day trips all year round, we provide very special holidays for teenagers with learning difficulties or other disadvantages. We operate without any paid employees. As volunteers, what makes us tick is the satisfaction of being able to share our passion for the waterways and canal boating with people normally excluded from this pastime

I had my initial ski lessons with Mollie who was wonderful, patient and friendly, I learned a lot fairly quickly... re-visited more recently to practice and failed epically, only to be saved by Greg, an instructor on the day, who again was wonderful, super patient and friendly, who helped me down the slope, gave me some pointers and kindly took me through a few trial runs to get my confidence back. Super stars all round and I can recommend the sweet potato fries and vegan breakfast as well!!

I highly recommend Nutmeg Spa in Hemel Hempstead for complete relaxation. Just smells lovely as soon as you walk in and atmosphere so peaceful, I so want to fall asleep but don't want to miss out either! Staff are all welcoming and lovely. My daughter and I can't wait for them to re-open now so we can use our Christmas vouchers!!

Booked for 12 of us for sunday lunch. We were required to pre order starters and main courses. Stopped here towards end of fab 6/7 mile walking starting in Hemel and travelling via boxmoor/bovingdon/little hay golf course (might be wrong order!) Group had a few starters including mushrooms (delicous v peppery), pate and prawn skewer that looked amazing! Burgers, roasts, salads,scampi all good sized portions served very hot and all those eating had clear plates at the end..the ultimate recommendation. A few were able to enjoy after the chocolate cake ,treacle tart and what looked the best to me, the Apple crumble!!
