Why choose Beacon Park Boats?

10 reasons why our boats stand out from the rest

Reasons to look no further for a narrowboat hire holiday
Your narrowboat holiday starts from our home, not the archetypal messy boatyard. You can relax after your journey and enjoy refreshments on our Wharf.
We offer a choice of 10 luxury boats, the widest range on the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal. Boat widths vary from 6ft 10ins, to 8ft 6ins and can sleep from 2-7 people.
Owl, our new boat in 2007 offers the most luxurious of boating experiences. A wide beam boat with hot tub/Jacuzzi, log fire, 5ft four poster bed plus a host of other luxury extras for those seeking a truly indulgent experience.
Our narrowboats are immaculately clean and have an exceptionally high standard of fixtures and fittings, including well maintained and serviced engines. We try to exceed your expectations in all aspects of your narrowboat hire holiday.
All our holiday hire narrowboats have large cruiser style back decks and spacious cockpits enabling both young and old to enjoy the ever changing scenery.
We offer flexibility on both length of stay (3, 4, 7, 10, 11 or 14 nights), and start day (Saturday, Monday & Friday).
A fantastic base to start your narrowboat hire holiday, this historic wharf was built in 1804 to store pig iron which was loaded onto barges for transportation to the coast at Newport. We now enjoy far reaching views across Abergavenny and there are delightful walks within the Blaenavon World Heritage Site and Brecon Beacons National Park.
We are ideally located on the canal so that Talybont on Usk is within easy reach for a weekend and Brecon, is just right for a week’s cruise.
No charge is made for dogs as we believe that a narrowboat holiday is perfect for both dogs and their owners.

To assure you of these standards we are inspected annually by VisitBritain (English Tourism Council). Stars are awarded for quality, facilities, inventory, cleanliness, the hire base, and customer focus. All of our boats have the highest possible awards with six of them rated at 5 star.
