Celebration of Life –
We held a reception at the Aston Marina for about 50 people. The organisation of the event was thorough; every wish was noted and acted upon. The food was fresh, well presented, tasted good and the supply plentiful. Guests enjoyed the ambience of the Hideaway room and were complimentary about the service of the staff. We recommend this venue without hesitation.
Nb ISAAC and crew moved to Aston Marina in April 2016. We’d kept the boat south of Birmingham, moving north for us, was a good move. The canals are a lot quieter up here, and the variety of routes, and lovely destinations even better. The marina is large, and has plenty of room for turning onto our pontoon. The helpful staff are never far away, and everything is kept spotless. The lookouts spend hours looking for a blade of grass out of place but have yet to find one. No.26 is a great place to eat, the menu regularly changing and is really Covid secure. Stone is a lovely walk along the canal, and is a traditional market town with a proper high street. We have no plans to leave Aston. It gives us everything we need, and more.
