Just the sort of site we like best, and among them, a clear winner.
Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Everything about this campsite was great. We particularly liked the toilet and shower facilities - modern spacious and clean. It has a great location in the middle of the Beacons, next to a stream which you can bathe in. It's quite a small site, which we like, and not busy during the week - which we also like. The owners are very nice. Some helpful info on what to do locally. Excellent free WiFi.

Great site: modern facilities, good-sized pitches and friendly staff
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Six of us stayed here in late June '25 for a weekend hiking over Pen-y-Fan and a wander round the Four Waterfalls. This great little campsite is perfectly located for both, and also ca. 10 mins drive from Brecon. There's a modern toilet and shower block and kitchen area ( with fridge, freezer, microwave + kettle), both kept clean and tidy. Pitches were a good size, with plenty of space across the entire site - good Wi-fi too! Owners were friendly and welcoming, pootling round in their little truck. And, during our visit, our fellow campers were respectful of the 'quiet hours.'

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked What a great find I most definitely will go back. We went in June sadly it was just a one night stop off on a longer journey, I was very tempted to stay longer but needed to get going. We were in a camper on hook up, loads of room only a few pitches. The toilets and showers very clean, the showers were fab, each cubical has its own sink and plenty of room. It's a quiet site no annoying club house or any disturbances, wonderful. Bit of a walk into town for shopping if like us once you park up thats it everything else is on foot or public transport so you need a bit of forward planning but its worth the trouble.
Disliked The water in the showers wasn't very hot, warm enough but not hot hot.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked My second time visiting this camp site, I will 100% be visiting again and recommending to family and friends!
The facilities are brilliant as well as kept clean and tidy! There is everything you need to make your experience comfortable. The owners are also so friendly and accomodating if you need any help. The farm animals are also an added bonus which would be great if travelling with young kids. Location is brilliant with easy access to everywhere. Signal and WIFi both good too. Loved that there is plenty of picnic tables.
