Beacon Park Boats

Beacon Park Boats is a narrowboat hire base situated on the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal just outside the village of Llangattock, roughly halfway along this 36-mile waterway in the Brecon Beacons National Park.

The company offers both multi-day canal boat holidays and electric day boat hire, making it accessible to visitors with no prior boating experience. The location is well placed for exploring the canal in either direction.

Heading toward Brecon, boaters encounter the canal's locks and tunnels; heading toward Newport offers a more relaxed, lock-free cruise.

The Mon and Brec is regarded as one of the UK's most scenic waterways, running unusually high above the valley floor with sweeping views, and forming part of the Blaenavon UNESCO World Heritage Site.
