Located in the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park, Llangattock Off-side is one of four Waterside Mooring sites managed by the Canal & River Trust on the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal.
Though isolated from the rest of the Trust's 2,000 mile network, the Mon & Brec as it is popularly known, is rated as one of the prettiest to be found anywhere on the waterway system.
This mooring site is approximately 230m long and currently provides space for up to 18 vessels moored against the off-side bank of the canal.
Over the winter period of 2016 & 2017, the entire length of the moorings has been relined with concrete, with new stonework to the waterway walls in front of the lime kilns.

This is a leisure site and is determined by us to be a mooring site for the storage of boats between leisure use, customers may well spend weekends on this site, and occasionally longer periods, but it is not sold as, or intended to be suitable for long term residential use. This site does not have local authority planning consent for residential use, neither does it have the level of facilities and service expected of such a mooring. As such the offer that we have is only intended to meet the needs of a leisure boater.
