Walking
Lower Foxhangers is a 90 acre "evolving" farm, with a canal-side wharf offering narrowboat holidays and a marina of 40 boats at the
base of Caen Hill Locks.
Colin and Cynthia Fletcher welcome you to a relaxing holiday in our self catering holiday mobile homes, or if you prefer, our campsite.
Relaxing
Relax with pleasant dreams in our rural retreat amid the Wiltshire countryside. Roam the canal towpath and see the gaily-painted narrowboats as they lazily glide through the rippling water and climb the unrivalled flight of Caen Hills Locks, or explore the more challenging walk along the mysterious and undated Wansdyke.
Cycling
The all weather canal path from Devizes to Bradford on Avon and Bath, offers safe and silent cycling, free of charge. A growing network of rides and cycle-ways along Wiltshire's quiet roads, canal paths and disused railways now provide links to the Sustrans National Cycle Routes.
Fishing
The canal provides excellent coarse fishing and is well stocked with Common, Mirror and Crucian carp as well as Roach, Perch and Tench. Fishing from the towpath is controlled by Devizes Angling Association and day licences or fortnightly tickets are available from the farmhouse. Please note an N.R.A rod licence is required.
