A welsh boating holiday, meandering through the brecon beacon national park on the 'mon & brec' canal, is a nature lovers dream. there is plenty of wildlife to spot from your hire boat, including kites, kingfishers, herons and lots of ducks and moorhens.. Last summer, the welsh actor took his wife, hinterland star mali harries, and kids on an anglo welsh canal boat holiday, setting off from our trevor base in north wales on a true-life family adventure.. The montgomeryshire canal ran from welsh frankton locks near ellesmere, where it left the llangollen canal, for 38 miles down the beautiful and isolated welsh borders through welshpool to newtown. it was abandoned in 1944 but about 10 miles are now reopened and there is a 17 mile detached section around welshpool..
And what better way to celebrate this beauty than a slow, dreamy cruise up the llangollen canal on a narrowboat? we picked up our vessel from maestermyn, at welsh frankton in shropshire.. The monmouthshire and brecon canal is beautiful in all seasons and we look forward to sharing it with you. you can find more information about the history of the canal from ‘the monmouthshire and brecon canal’ guide written by john norris, which is included in the cost of your holiday..
