Racquety Farm
Favourite
Our geodome tents are pitched in our orchard, meadow and woodland. They are comfortably furnished with wooden pallet beds with air mattresses and bedding, rugs and mats and woodburning stoves.
There are hot water stands where you can get a great shower, clean your teeth and do the washing up and recycling. Firewood is available for cooking on campfires.
We have composting toilets in cedarwood 'sentry boxes'.
Nearby attractions and activities
Racquety Farm is only 400 metres from the centre of the attractive border town of Hay-on-Wye, famous for its bookshops. We are over the river from the town in a very rural setting.
Canoeing down the river, long distance walks, riding, cycling and paragliding from Hay Bluff are amongst the local activities.

Friendly, quiet and comfortable campsite which makes up part of a small organic farm near Hay on Wye. The site promotes eco-friendly and sustainable values which really interested us and the children! Bids222 (Family with young children, 1 review, 0 photos)
