This cruise on the Basinsgtoke has been sponsored by the Basingstoke Canal Society in conjunction with Byfleet Boat Club and the Local (Guildford and Reading) branch of the IWA.

It is the first cruise over the entire length of the canal since 2006 following a successful cruise by four boats from Byfleet Boat Club (Leo No2, Hazell Nut, Aqua Vitae and Winter Lilly) to Brookwood village between Christmas and New Year 2012.

The main aim is to navigate to the limit of the navigation but there are three options available as follows:

1) Cruise to the Bridge Barn hotel in Woking and return
2) Cruise to Brookwood Country Park and return
3) Cruise to King John's Castle (Odiham) and return

Application form available here

Currently the boat numbers are:

Woking - 2
Brookwood Country Park - 7
Odiham/King John's Castle - 32

Bridge Barn and Hunter's Lodge Pubs

I am not intending to make any block bookings of tables in these two pubs (Bridge Barn is in Woking - end of first day) and Hunter's Lodge is in Brookwood (end of second day). It really does become, based on past experience, a huge task in its own right.

If you wish to make your own arrangements please do so - details as follows:

Bridge Barn Hotel Woking - (01483) 763642 
Hunter's Lodge Brookwood - (01483) 474602
