Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Friendly welcome on arrival and regular check ins to see if we needed anything. Good flat hard standing for the van with grass alongside for the awning. Amazing views, lots of space and quiet so no queues for the facilities. Shower and toilets were clean. Camp fires allowed and fireplace provided at no cost. The website said checkout was 10am but the owners were very relaxed and did not insist on this.

Disliked: Much further from local shops and pubs than the website suggested.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: We had the best stay here, some of us in shepherds huts, some tents and some motorhomes. We were given the whole field to ourselves with the most well equipped outside kitchen. The compost toilets were great and when the shower had a glitch it was fixed in 10 minutes. We learnt about the farm, surrounding area and found the whole family accommodating and very friendly with great stories to tell. Walks from the sight were full of surprises with waterfalls and grotto. This beautiful site in untouched natural surroundings was everything and more that we were after. Thank you so much.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Lovely place with idyllic scenery Couple who run the place were really friendly and were more than helpful, they gave me a choice of where to stay, bought round firewood and couldn’t have been any nicer I stayed there with my dog in the back of my Land Rover and they were very accommodating. The site itself is very well kept, well sign posted and even the other campers were very kind. Lovely walk up into the woods too for the dog, really enjoyed everything about the place I’ll definitely be returning again thank you for your hospitality!

Disliked: The only thing I didn’t like was that I didn’t have a longer stay, I’d have happily stayed a few more nights

Local attractions

There are epic hikes to be had at Brecon Beacons National Park (from 15 minutes’ drive), which is also home to attractions like the National Showcaves Centre for Wales (35 minutes), with impressive underground caverns like the so-called Cathedral Cave (featuring stalactites, waterfalls and subterranean lakes), plus lifesize dinosaurs. Stretching on the banks of the River Loughor, the WWT Llanelli Wetland Centre (half an hour) shelters kingfishers, egrets and several species of birds of prey, plus a lively flock of pink flamingos. There are also interesting walks with knowledgeable wardens, plus adventure playgrounds and routes specifically designed for children. From springtime daffodils to autumn conkers, there’s lots to see every season at the National Botanic Garden of Wales (35 minutes). Check out the Arboretum, with plants and shrubs from all across the globe, including Tasmania and Chile; learn about pollinator-friendly plants at the buzzing Bee Garden; or go looking for the tiny residents of the Fairy Wood.
