just remembered with you mentioning canals,theres a smashing little canal boat trip onlt 20mins drive from accy, foulridge theres 2 trips one under the tunnel they tell you the history of it,the other on the open canal well worth it and a darn sight cheaper than hiring one also you don't have to book so you can pick a nice day,done them meself a few times,
