The marina welcomes high quality, well maintained boats whose owners wish to moor and settle within an environment that operates within a philosophy of courtesy and common sense. Moorers benefit from all aspects of maintaining their boats at Blackwater Meadow and further, enjoy discounts on many of the services that are available. Click here for a list of moorings available at our marinas, or of course you can contact the marinas direct for information.
We do operate a waiting list at the marina and there is limited availability for berths as occasional spaces become available through cyclical movement.
The marina has a lovely rural feel about it yet is just a stone's throw from the centre of Ellesmere. Family-owned grocery shops, tea shops and restaurants are the rule here and expect warm, friendly service.. Just a few yards up the road is The White Hart, reputedly the oldest pub in Shropshire, serving fine ales and home cooked food. Sunday Dinner is highly recommended. Market day is Tuesday and the Market Hall in the centre of town holds the market which has been held continuously since 1221! If you are not cruising and enjoying some of the stunning experiences on the Llangollen or Shropshire Union Canals, you can sit back and relax in the marina or take one of the many beautiful walks around the immediate area. Wander to Colemere, passing through an early Canal tunnel and past Blakemere, a lake created by glaciers 12,000 years ago. Try the Meres Visitor Centre or enjoy a hearty lunch at the lakeside restaurant which specialises in locally produced food. Its pies are delicious and the atmosphere relaxed and welcoming. Note: Berth holders at Blackwater Meadow Marina are currently able to benefit from special rates on many services. ABC Leisure Group reserves the right to alter fees subject to the criteria outlined in the Mooring Terms & Conditions.
