Directions to Ellesmere from motorways Ellesmere Local map
From the North take the M56 off the M6 near Warrington. Head west towards Chester. Take the Chester Bypass and take the turn towards Wrexham down the A483. Then follow signs for Ellesmere. In Ellesmere follow signs towards Shrewsbury and Whitchurch, the Mere will be on your left.

From the South take the M54 off the M6 north of Wolverhampton towards Shrewsbury. This becomes the A5, take the A49 towards Whitchurch, then follow the signs for Ellesmere via the A528. You will see the Mere on the right before you reach the centre of Ellesmere.

Ellesmere is an attractive market town between Whitchurch and Oswestry in the centre of 'Shropshire's Lake District', so called because of numerous 'meres' in the area.

The Shropshire Steamboat Company is based on the beautiful 'Big Mere' just to the west of the town centre on the A483. There is ample parking near to the Mere.

There's lots more to do and see on a day out in this beautiful Border area, see our links to other local attractions.

The Shropshire Steamboat Co. also offers fully insured secure indoor storage for boats up to 10 metres in length at our North Shropshire premises. Collection and delivery can also be arranged if required.

A skilled team of boat builders and a full and comprehensive workshop are available for any maintenance requirements. We would also consider any interesting new design / build projects and are more than happy to discuss your ideas and dreams with you, after all, the Lady Katherine was just a dream not so long ago...
