DURING the Christmas period the Chesterfield Canal Trust is running Santa Special cruises on four boats from five different venues.
Wherever you decide to join Santa, all the children will get a suitable present and all the adults will get a mince pie (or similar) and a drink. All this for £7 per person. But advance booking is essential.
Already started
The trip boat John Varley has already started its Santa Special trips from Tapton Lock. Madeline will be hosting Santa on cruises from Hollingwood Hub, starting on 3rd December. To book either boat, ring 01629 533020.
