What customers say

This is a friendly, welcoming small campsite attached to a pub, praised for its excellent food and accommodating owners and staff. Pitches are generally level, and facilities, though basic and limited (often just one shower and toilet), are reported as clean. The location is convenient for exploring Mid Wales, with beautiful views. Some guests mention road and train noise, and a few note that the pub can close early.

Ali L.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Easy to find

Disliked Hi, sadly we left soon after we arrived as we were so close in our tents to a busy road, & rail crossing, then a train went past very near, which we agreed would be a difficult nights rest especially as we had dogs with us: we couldn’t move as a small site.

Electric optional hardstanding pitch

Liked Beautiful little site with all level pitches , attached to a pub with a lovely outdoor seating area. Very friendly and welcoming family that run it. Very handy just outside the town of Welshpool but far enough out to have a real calm and countryside feel.
Will definitely return and would highly recommend.

Disliked Not a criticism, but maybe think about placing a mirror on the opposite side of the road by the entrance/exit as this would make pulling out on to the road easier.

Robert J.

Electric optional hardstanding pitch

Liked Level pitches
Great pint of Butty
Close to the town of Welshpool, bus stop outside a 10 minute journey into the town and a great pub OWL & Pussycat
Close to Offas Dyke walking trail
Pub garden has good facilities for children to use

Disliked Shower block very basic to the point we didn’t use it
Toilet block again requires some tlc
Not a problem for us but very close to main road, and main train line does run past the site, but you do get used to it and can’t beat a good bit of train spotting
Food was ok
No WiFi but 4G signal was strong

Sue Y.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked We loved it, staff helpful
I took my grandchildren 15 and 5
We visited family in Manchester and had a day in Rhyl

Disliked It’s not for everyone the trains pass close to site so bit noisy but didn’t bother us my granddaughter loved waving to them and the road on other side of camp is busy day and night again it didn’t bother us
Both reflected in the site fees

Electric optional hardstanding pitch

Liked The view from the pub garden is beautiful

Disliked Booked this as an Overnight stop off as I thought it was a restaurant pup and we could have food and drinks before carrying on our travels next day. The grass at side of pitches is unkept.
Only 1 toilet and I shower that was unclean and smelt of dirty water. We did not use them. The pup itself smelt musty and was also unclean. No chief just the owner making food. We didn’t eat or drink there.
The pup is on a very busy road so the traffic noise is constant and all through the night - never slept a wink
Overall worst night experienced in our MH

David B.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked I stopped for an overnight camp at the Green Dragon Inn during my Offa’s Dyke challenge walk, arriving late after a gruelling day on the trail. The moment I stepped in, I was met with a genuinely warm and friendly atmosphere that felt like a home away from home. Despite the late hour, the landlady kindly kept the kitchen open and served me a much-needed hot meal — a gesture I won’t forget.
The facilities were excellent, and the relaxed, family-run vibe made it an ideal stop for a weary backpacker like me. I left feeling rested, well-fed, and grateful. Highly recommended — I’d happily stay again.

Local attractions

What horizons to set your sights on first? Well, for those of you who have historical sites high up on your holiday to-do list, there are a few places to get started and Powis Castle (10 minutes' drive) is one of the closest out of the lot. This huge Welsh castle has some splendid garden terraces and walks in the grounds are a real treat… For less walking and more chugging about, steam train trips go from the Welshpool and Llanfair Railway Preservation Company (10 minutes). To continue with your historic streak, The Wharf Powysland Museum (10 minutes) spills the beans on Montgomeryshire’s local history, while for ruins, Montgomery Castle (15 minutes) and the Mitchell's Fold Stone Circle (20 minutes) are some of your options. Of course, activities-wise, walking is particularly fine around this area, especially in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (20 minutes) and Snowdonia National Park (40 minutes) but the kids in your group could cheer on the pig races or meet the alpacas at Park Hall’s adventure farm (25 minutes). Meanwhile, the adults might prefer to go for a laidback game of golf at the Brookland Hall Golf Club (10 minutes).
