Canal narrowboat hire holidays on the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal

The hire base is between the five locks on the edge of the village of Llangynidr midway between Brecon and Abergavenny. The village is well known for the ancient and picturesque bridge over the river Usk. Novices are our speciality as our unique location enables us to give both full driving and practical lock instruction which we consider important for safe navigation, lock assistance is also offered for less able customers. Both the width and length of our narrow boats allow easy navigation on this smaller canal. The whole canal can be navigated in a week; however, we would recommend 10 or 11 days at an enjoyable pace.
