About Pencelli Castle Narrowboat
Based on the scenic Monmouth and Brecon Canal in Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park, Pencelli Castle Narrowboat is a stunning boat and ideal for family holidays or group getaways. The boat sleeps up to six adults, with two fixed double beds and the sofa converts into an additional double berth as required. With beautiful oak panelling, granite worktops, and a well-equipped kitchen, the boat has everything you need for a relaxing week away. The kitchen features a fridge, gas cooker, microwave, and toaster, and the full bathroom has a 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 a contour canal, and consequently 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.
