We had the pleasure of staying on the 'Buzzard' for a week on the Mon and Brec canal this July. The narrowboat was much more than we could have ever expected--beautifully constructed and appointed, we had everything and more to make our holiday comfortable and enjoyable. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and even though we had never been aboard a narrowboat before, they make us feel very comfortable with all of the operations before setting out onto the canal. This was by far one of the most fun adventures we have experienced, and we can't wait to do it again! We would highly recommend Beacon Park Boats as a first class operation, surrounded by the serenity and beauty of the Mon and Brec canal!

We've just returned from a fabulous week aboard Buzzard. The customer experience from Beacon Park Boats, was second to none, warm, friendly and helpful from booking through to arrival and then at the holiday end. Their fine eye for the detail was clearly noticeable. The boat itself was comfortable and well equiped and the route of the Mon & Brec canal through the Powys countryside is glorious. Whether you are new to canal boating or an old hand on the cut, we have no hesitation in recommending Beacon Park Boats.

We were so pleased with the holiday, the service we received from all the staff, and with the quality and layout of the boat itself. We hope very much to be back next season.
