  • Quiet wildlife haven by the River Ithon
  • Peaceful and sheltered setting with free fishing on site
  • Licensed bar with Welsh beers, malt whiskies and more
Now this is a site that's fully in tune with its surroundings... peaceful and sheltered Disserth Caravan and Camping Park is in a wildlife haven on the banks of the River Ithon, where red kites and buzzards hover overhead and where you might catch a glimpse of the resident otter or kingfisher. Grayling trout fishing is available on site too and is free for guests; just remember to bring your rod licence. Junior explorers enjoy seeing what they can uncover in the depths with a net here as well; no licence required. (If angling's your thing, this is the area for it: the River Ithon is a tributary of the mighty River Wye, one of the best spots in the country for fishing and visited by anglers the world over to land salmon and trout from its waters.) Disserth Caravan and Camping Park is also quite in tune with what guests might fancy on hol, as it has a licensed bar with a good selection of Welsh beers and malt whiskies, as well as soft drinks, tea and coffee. Its well-kept amenities are in a modern log cabin with individual rooms, all with a toilet and washbasin and most also with a shower. Laundry and dishwashing facilities are also on site.

Liked What a lovely little hidden gem! Beautiful location if you want a lovely quiet stay. Right next to the river which is picturesque!! Only a short drive into Tenby if you want a day out. And the hosts were so welcoming and helpful.

Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Very nice site. Large level pitch. As someone else mentioned make sure you have a longish hook up cable. A standard 10m cable may not be long enough. Facility building slightly dated but absolutely fine and immaculately clean. Nice individual shower rooms with WC. The duty managers, standing in for the owners, were very pleasant and informative. Good to see that just about everything waste wise has a recycling container which even some of the larger club sites don't have. Ideal location for exploring the Elan Valley & surrounding areas. WiFi was OK although we mostly used our 4g as reception was fine.

Nice small site with all the facilities needed and would use again.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked The owners were diamonds… very friendly and couldn’t have been more helpful. You could tell they took great pride in their site, which they’ve developed over the many years they’ve been there. Had everything there with nice showers, clean toilets and it looked like (I didn’t use them), that they had a fridge, an oven and a microwave for use.
Location was lush green with good walks with our dog from the site to Newbridge on Wye and Llandrindod Wells. From the site are short drive to Builth Wells and the Elan Valley

Disliked Nonething

Local attractions

Disserth Caravan and Camping Park is in a nifty spot to use as a base to tackle the walks and bike rides of mid-Wales, or for visiting the shows and events of the nearby Royal Welsh Showground. The Elan valley and the Red Kite Feeding Centre at Gigrin Farm are 10 minutes' drive to the north. Also have a look at nearby Abbey Cym Hir Hall at Llandrindod Wells, a neo-Elizabethan country mansion built in the 19th century, and at the Judge's Lodgings in Presteigne, a recreation of a 19th-century judge's house – courtroom included. Llandrindod Wells has the National Cycle Collection of Wales in its National Cycle Museum as well as an 18-hole golf course.
