Camping pod (adults only, no pets)

Liked Clean and cosy little glamping pod. It has a little oil heater which was such a luxury to have on a camping trip. The owners were friendly and the food at the pub were just what you need after a day's walking. Toilets and shower were very clean.

Electric optional hardstanding pitch

Liked Liked the look of the site online and paid £20 online for one night.£

Disliked Unfortunately this site doesn’t live up to anywhere near to its online presentation. Most of the gravel pitches within 5 yards of a very noisy busy main road. There was no escape from the road noise anywhere on this site. The pitch fee was £20 for the night they wanted an extra £10 for ehu, no thanks. One ramshackle shower and one toilet which in all of our years of motorhome travelling around Europe and the UK rates as the worst we have come across. Badly in need of serious upgrade.

From the manager: sorry you were disappointed we have only been here since April and do intend to up grade the site but there is 3 toilets on site not just one

Over night stop ,friendly welcoming,…

Electric optional hardstanding pitch

Liked Friendly owners and nice little campsite which was clean and had level pitches. Very conveniently situated just off the main road and Welshpool roundabout. 1 shower and 1 toilet. A little park in the pubs beer garden for kids.

Disliked I’m sorry to say that the traffic noise was too loud for us. Though this may not affect some people. We had to take our own toilet roll as theirs kept running out. And I couldn’t find any bins on site. I think the shower water pipe was also linked up to the toilet flush, as the shower would go cold when somebody would use the toilet or wash their hands. Sorry.

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).
