Level fully serviced premier pitches at rockbridge park
Sunny, level premier pitches at rockbridge park

  • Peaceful escape in a dark skies community on the Welsh border
  • Riverside setting a mile from the market town of Presteigne
  • Dog-friendly site; stargazing dome with telescope
Sitting alongside the River Lugg and with views of the hills, Rockbridge Park is a super spot for a relaxing break away from busy everyday life. This small family-run site on the Wales-England border is within easy reach of days out around the countryside, plus the villages and towns of Powys and beyond. 
 When not roaming the region, spend time lying back on site with your nose in a book, fishing in the river or setting off on strolls nearby. Even a wander around the site has its rewards – look out for the dragonfly and wind sculptures, then relax by the waterfall while you take in the views. Four-legged friends are welcome to join you here too – they’ll be able to scamper around at the secure dog walk or accompany you on one of the many trails running from the park. And don’t worry about them getting into muddy puddles – a dog wash back on site will take care of that. Facilities for human guests are nicely thought out too, with wifi, hot showers, a launderette and a fridge among the provisions. The highlight, however, surely has to be the stargazing dome – kitted out with a telescope and bean bags, it’s a great spot to take advantage of Rockbridge being in a ‘dark skies community’. Heading out, it’s a five-minute drive to Presteigne, a traditional Welsh market town with a good selection of pubs, restaurants, takeaways, cafés and shops (most of them dog-friendly). For other places to visit nearby, chat to the team on site – they’ve always got lots of top tips to dish out.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked The site is well maintained. The pitches are a good size and although it was busy it didn't feel cramped.
The facilities are clean and well maintained. 2 showers in the ladies plus 2 in the mens. There are 2 seperate family shower rooms.
We had a grass and gravel electric pitch which also had a tap.
We heard that the tv reception was not very good however we didn't have any issues.
Wifi was good.
We didn't try the dome for stargazing.

Disliked Nothing.

From the manager: Thank you for the amazing review, we are so glad you had a great stay with us and cannot wait to welcome you back. It was a busy Bank Holiday Weekend at Rockbridge but we do like to make sure you have enough space on your pitch to be comfortable. We did not hear of any reports regarding the TV reception on our super pitches but we will have a look at this. We had our WiFi upgraded last year and glad to hear it is still working well even when busy. We hope to see you all again soon.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked Nice place, the river, the staff, the freezers

Disliked lots of other caravans and tents in every direction around you, noisey with kids, drive too fast around site.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for the review and your feedback. We have been very busy this Bank Holiday and this does mean all the pitches are full on park with a lot of children enjoying the river which is something that makes Rockbridge Park special.

We do hope you will visit us again at Rockbridge.

Lovely peaceful site.

Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch (premium)

Liked Lovely, well kept park. Pitch was close to facilities and was a good size. The weather was scorching but the river was a fantastic way to cool down. The walk to Presteigne was safe and easy. The star gazing dome is gorgeous, although we couldn’t get the telescope to work but it was a lovely space none the less. The field for the dog to run around off the lead was great and a free tennis ball on arrival at reception was such a lovely touch.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are so glad you enjoyed you stay with us here and what great photos they certainly showed what a great time you had with us. It was a very hot weekend and it was the perfect opportunity to get down to the river. The telescope can be a bit tricky to use in the stargazing dome but always pop into the office if needed and we can give you some pointers on how to use. We hope to see you again soon.

Fantastic week stay! 5* for sure!

Electric grass pitch (riverside)

Liked Facilities were immaculate! Several showers lots of toilet access. Fridges and freezers for campers use. WiFi all over the camp which was awesome for kids tablet time. Right by the river, lovely views of the sheep, cows.
So many close by walks you can go on. Lovely time in the forest! Closest shop was coOp and premier, both only 6min drive.
On the Saturday there was a burger van which was amazing! The starlight dome was wonderful. So dark at night the views were spectacular! 100% be coming back for another visit, maybe not right next to river next time though. Too many weird bugs.

Disliked Just the weird bugs.

From the manager: We are so glad to see you enjoyed your stay with us here and thank you for the great photos. Our riverside pitches are a lovely place to just sit and take in the views (even with nature around). It's also great to have some feedback with the food vendors as it was something new we were trying this year. Having the stargazing dome on park is also the perfect location to view the night sky. We can wait to welcome you back to Rockbridge.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked Lovely peaceful site! Fully booked but still had a chilled vibe. Our children loved splashing in the river. Staff were really helpful in accommodating our request to change pitch to be closer to our friends who were staying in a lodge on site.

From the manager: Thank you for the kind review. We like Rockbridge to be a place you can relax, unwind and enjoy. We do always try and accommodate requests where we can and glad we were able to help move you closer up the park. Hopefully we will see you all again soon.

Local attractions

Presteigne is a compact spot but it’s well worth swinging by for a look at The Judge's Lodging, an award-winning museum five minutes’ drive away that gives an insight into the grandeur of the masters’ lives on the top floors versus the servants who lived down below. Not so much further on is Knighton (10 minutes) with its community and arts centres for rainy days, along with a local railway link and access to Glyndŵr's Way for wanders along a path named after a Welsh legend. Another 10 minutes (20 from the park) from there is the Small Breeds Farm Park and Owl Centre for a glimpse of animals ranging from miniature horses to nocturnal birds. Top towns are scattered around this rural region too: think Leominster (30 minutes away) for sights like grand Berrington Hall (40 minutes) with its views over to the Black Mountains; the famed book and festival town of Hay-on-Wye (35 minutes); or Ludlow to see the castle and Tudor buildings or peruse posh boutiques (40 minutes).
