Comments and Reviews:

Family company offerring canal boat hire in the Brecon  Beacons ,on the Monmouthshire Canal, one of the most scenic canals in the county.

Quality craft, with some interesting interior designs at reasonable prices .

Fleet of 13 different boats which include features such as four poster beds and  log burning stoves.
No additional charge is made for dogs.

Standards look high claiming a 5 star status from the English Tourism Council, it is also evident that some effort has been put into planning t the layout of individual craft to give them a bit of individual character, this does not look like the usual fleet of narrowboat clones that you tend to get from most hire companies.

Seem to be well thought of in the Canal forums, A couple of comment I found are below, I am sure you can discover more for yourself

Reading the comments and having sampled the delights of the Monmouthshire canaland the Brecon Beacons I would be quite tempted to use this company myself

They also offer day hire and  a holiday cottage as a sideline for those less keen on traveling , or getting their feet wet.

2011 prices or a 6 berth week  from £1208 (March) to £1576 (Aug) include fuel and parking,damage waiver £25.



Comments from the Forums:


"we hired from Beacon Park boats and I'd strongly recommend them to anyone wanting to do that canal. "

"...but I would say the Beacon Boats were much better. We had their widebeam (8'6") for just the two of us and it was great "
