Long Boat Holidays

Long boat holidays on the Monmouthshire and Brecon canal encapsulate the essence of the traditional narrowboat experience. You will have the opportunity to operate locks and lift bridges, the experience of navigating through a tunnel and across a beautiful aqueduct not to mention the sheer pleasure of being in charge of your own boat along one of the most beautiful stretches of waterway in the UK.

Our boats are fully equipped to enable you to live aboard in luxurious style, with all the comforts you would expect and more! After a days cruising you can relax on board with a film (our boats all have flat screen televisions and DVD players) or you can choose to explore one of the villages en-route and eat in one of the numerous pub sand restaurants; you really are spoilt for choice.

Long boat holidays really can offer something for everyone, from the very young to the older generation, who may indeed have introduced their own children to the pleasures of long boat holidays. Older children will enjoy the thrill of learning to steer the boat and tackling the locks and lift bridges. Others can watch the abundance of wildlife and stunning scenery at the leisurely pace of two miles an hour. The beauty of long boat holidays is that you determine the pace, where to stop and how long for, where to moor for the night and how far to travel each day. You can choose to be as remote or sociable as you please.
