Liked: We recommend this absolute gem of a small greener camping club site. Very remote in terms of traffic and noise pollution, but close to Builth, Newbridge and Llandrindod. We were extremely fortunate to have this site to ourselves for 3 nights in September, and we enjoyed an unspoilt starry sky and nice walks. The facilities comprise a rustic but fully satisfying setup for showering and washing the dishes, and two adjacent, very clean compost toilets. These and generous areas for sitting, barbecues and campfire are located in a shaded woodland. A short walk down the end of the site leads to the Wye Valley Walk footpath. The sloped campsite has several pitches that are flattened and filled with woodchips.

Liked: The walk along the river Wye was beautiful on the day we arrived (before the rain came!). The hosts could not have been more helpful when our camper van got stuck on the way to the camping field. They allowed us to park on their hard standing late in the evening, and the use of their facilities also. Cannot thank them enough for their kindness to us in a difficult situation. The wood at the edge of the site is ideal for exploring and adventures for young campers.
Disliked: The grass slopes to the camping field, and the relatively basic facilities.

Liked: Cwm Wye is such a lovely site. Really ‘back to nature’, with trees all around. Everything else you’d need is there - a sink, compost loos and a shower. There’s an amazing area with a fire pit in the woods. All wood was provided which was a really nice touch. A truly peaceful place and very friendly owners. Recommended!
Disliked: Pretty sloped, but resolved with levelling ramps if in a campervan. Shower curtain may leave you showing a little more than you had planned as it blows in the wind 😂

Liked: Fantastic service! nice and helpful. quiet place with access to hot water (shower) and toilet. A place for a barbecue and a bonfire in the woods and walking paths near the river at a low price. A perfect place to unwind.
Disliked: it would be nice to have 2 tree swings for the kids.

Liked: A beautiful campsite in wonderful nature. The hot shower is brilliant and we loved using the bbq and fire pit. The River Wye is walking distance and Tania gave us great recommendations including the Elan Valley and Cwm Chwefru. Definitely recommend and we’ll be back again!
