The Brecon Beacons offers canal boat lovers a great place to go on holiday. Despite the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal being landlocked and separate from the rest of Britain’s canal and waterways system it is one of the most beautiful and scenic canals in the country.

There’s plenty of narrowboat operators based on the canal and it’s the ideal canal boat holiday in wales if you are looking for quiet and peaceful cruising. 

The canal offers easy cruising with relatively few locks along it’s route as it hugs the contours of the land. The canal takes you through wooded areas that abounds with wildlife and also offers panoramic views across the Usk Valley as it journeys towards Brecon.

It’s important to book well in advance if you want a canal boat holiday in the Brecon Beacons as it is a popular destination and the narrow-boats can get booked up quickly.

Enjoy your stay on the Monmouthshire and Brecon canal with one of the operators listed below.
