Luxury canal boat holidays
Beacon Park Boats is our family business, offering 5-star boating holidays on the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal in the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park in Wales. It’s the fast way to slow down. Cruise at just 2½ miles an hour past magnificent mountains and pretty canalside villages, get up close to wildlife, and, most importantly, find time to relax with family and friends. Expect luxurious beds, exquisite shower rooms, high-spec kitchens, central heating, wood-burning (or log effect gas) stoves and bow thrusters for easy boat handling.
Stylish narrowboats
19 highly-individual luxury canal boats sleeping from 2 to 7 people. Take a self-drive cruise through the Brecon Beacons National Park from March to October or choose a permanently-moored houseboat holiday from November to March.
New to boating?
No experience is needed as our narrowboats are simple to handle. We'll send you an instructional DVD and there's a detailed handover before you set off on your cruise. The hardest task is choosing a boat!
5-star holidays
Our entire fleet of narrowboats and our canalside cottages are graded 5-star. For the fourth year in a row, our narrowboat have achieved a perfect 100% in the British Marine Federation inspection. We design and build each boat to exacting standards and aim to provide the very best customer service.
Spectacular part of Wales
Considered to be Britain’s most picturesque waterway, the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal (known locally as the Mon and Brec) is in rural Wales, yet close to road and rail links. Situated within the Brecon Beacons National Park and Blaenavon World Heritage Site, it's rich in heritage and wildlife, with endless things to see and do along the route.
Locks or lock-free?
Taking your boat through the six locks on the Mon & Brec canal is exciting. Everyone on board can get involved, including children. If you’d rather a lock-free holiday the Mon & Brec is a perfect choice; you can spend a week cruising a 25-mile stretch without having to operate a single lock. Take a look at our suggested itineraries for short breaks and longer holidays.
Dog-friendly
Remember this holiday is not just about you; it's also perfect for your dog! We allow up to 2 dogs per boat without a charge and provide you with a dog towel for that unexpected swimming lesson. The path alongside the canal is in excellent condition making dog walking a pleasure.
