Walk & Cruise Routes

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for recommendations for 2 week crusing rings that have enough interest for taking up to 3 weeks to cruise, and have walking or hiking on route.

The plan is currently to take myself, husband and and our two young kids for the 3 weeks, with my in-laws for a week, and my friend for a week. I'd like to be able to walk with my friend for a few days - either alongside or day loops. Ideally we'd like to take the kids on day trips to parks, activities, whatever.

I was initially thinking the Avon Ring, but I'd love to hear if there are other options.

I've done a couple narrowboat holidays, have cycled a fair distance on the canals, and just done a half-week walk along Hadrian's Wall. We're comfortable with locks (I'd love to do Caen one day!), but have never attempted tidal waters.
