About Kidwelly Castle Narrowboat

About Kidwelly Castle Narrowboat

Based on the scenic Monmouth and Brecon Canal in Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park, Kidwelly Castle Narrowboat is a beautiful boat and ideal for large groups and family holidays. The boat itself can sleep up to six adults, and there are two fixed double beds on board along with a large sofa that converts into another double bed as needed. The boat is made up with everything you need to have a relaxing week away, including a well-equipped kitchen with a fridge, gas cooker, microwave, and toaster, as well as a full bathroom with shower, toilet and sink. A diesel boiler ensures that hot water and heating are available on demand.

About the Mon & Brec Canal

Canal holidays are ideal for people looking to escape the rush of daily life, and where better to unplug and unwind than the stunning Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park! The Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal (aka the Mon & Brec) is a very special canal. Completely separate from the rest of the canal network, the Mon and Brec winds its way through the breathtaking Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park, from Brecon in the North to Pontymoile in the South. The canal itself is built on a contour, which means that there are only six locks on the entire canal, making it an ideal location for first-time narrowboaters. If you are a novice narrowboater, we provide full instructions at handover to ensure a successful holiday.

About Castle Narrowboats

Castle Narrowboats is a family-run business nestled in the breathtaking Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park. We believe in offering a warm, personal touch that only a family business can provide, welcoming you as our guests and friends as you set off to explore one of Wales’s most scenic waterways. In short, we are dedicated to making your holiday as memorable and relaxing as possible. When you book with Castle Narrowboats, you’ll be sure of a warm welcome from the whole family, including our official ‘Wharf Dog’ Eddie. He knows this canal almost as well as the rest of the family, and he's spent many weeks cruising up and down on various canal holidays. In fact, his first holiday after being adopted was on this very canal.

Our superb fleet of canal boats is ideal for all types of holidays. Whether you’re after a hands-on family adventure or a peaceful escape with friends, our boats are comfortable, well-equipped, and ready for your canal adventures. We take pride in our professional, high-quality service and look forward to giving you an unforgettable experience on the water.
