We moved over from Bristol and absolutely love it here, it is a beautiful canal and people here are really friendly. The help we get from our family is invaluable and our dog, Ozzie thinks he helps out too! We pride ourselves in offering a professional and quality service and look forward to welcoming you onto our boats.<\/p>\n<p>Located in Gilwern, ten minutes from Abergavenny, our base is ideally situated mid-way along the canal, enabling you to cruise in either direction. Our hire base and gift shop is our home and our private wharf allows for easy loading, unloading &amp; car parking.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\" ><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h4><\/h4>\n<h4>How to find us?<\/h4>\n<p>We are situated approximately 3 miles due west of Abergavenny, in the village of Gilwern.
