Friendly site on the edge of Bannau Brycheiniog National Park
A mile from Brecon town centre; 15 minutes' drive to Pen y Fan
Heated outdoor pool and sports field on site; restaurant next door

Just on the edge of the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park, you’ll be in a splendid spot to explore when you stay at Bishops Meadow Holiday Park. This mid-sized Powys park is in a very handy location just over a mile from Brecon, so you’ll be able to walk into town in around 25 minutes, get the bus from the stop just outside or drive down there in just a few minutes. Taxis are also available for a fairly affordable rate if you fancy having a nice meal out or a few drinks in one of the town’s cosy pubs. That said, you won’t have to go all the way into town if you don’t fancy it, as this site just happens to be next door to one of the area’s most popular restaurants, specialising in big tasty burgers. Rather cook your own meals? You’re welcome to bring a barbecue along and pick up supplies at the shops in town; there are also various essentials for sale at the site’s shop (including ice creams for a sweet treat). This is a place that prides itself on its friendly atmosphere, with the staff doing their best to ‘make sure guests are having the nicest time possible’. Helping to contribute to that are the site’s facilities, which include a heated outdoor pool (open from mid-May to September), a play area, a dog-walking path and a field with football and rugby goalposts for those who’d like to get a game going. You’ll also have access to useful things like a launderette, a chemical disposal point, toilets and showers.

What customers say

This well-maintained campsite offers stunning views and a great location for exploring Brecon and the surrounding walks. Staff are consistently praised for being friendly and helpful. Facilities, including the outdoor pool and shower blocks, are generally reported as clean and well-kept, although some guests noted the distance to the facilities from certain pitches and occasional minor issues like a tired appearance. The site is popular with families, with a play area, and is also dog-friendly. A nearby burger restaurant is a popular dining option.

Liked Welcoming staff on arrival. Pretty, well kept site. Easy access into Brecon (the steep hill was made easy by our electric bikes). The outdoor pool was very welcome after a very hot day visiting the 4 falls trail.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked The staff were very pleasant and helpful. There is a lovely restaurant called Hills which do amazing burgers but not much else.
It’s great for families not so much for peace and quiet.

Disliked A huge site with only one toilet and shower block. Our pitch was a very very long way from the facilities!

Local attractions

Brecon is a fairly small town, but it’s got plenty for the visitor – you may like to pay a visit to the cathedral, see the Royal Welsh Regimental Museum or explore the handful of art galleries here. There are also some lovely walks from town along the banks of the River Usk or the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal, and shows and concerts at Theatr Brycheiniog. The area around the town is packed with outdoor activities, including fishing, horse riding, mountain biking and watersports; the best way to find out about all of these is to ask site staff or consult the information folder in the office. Of course the national park has walks galore too, including the popular Four Waterfalls Walk (half an hour’s drive away) and the ascent of Pen y Fan (15 minutes). Other outings nearby might take you to an alpaca walk with Alpaca My Boots (15 minutes), a trip underground at the National Showcaves Centre for Wales (half an hour) or to learn about the past at Big Pit National Coal Museum (45 minutes).
