  • Dog-friendly Powys site close to the banks of the River Wye
  • A 45-minute walk from Hay-on-Wye, with canoe hire available nearby
  • Pebble beaches where guests can set up a firepit or barbecue
A location close to the banks of the River Wye is a good start for Digeddi Wildlife Camping… Then add to that gorgeous river views, well-spaced pitches and pebble beaches where guests can watch the sunset, and you’ve got the recipe for quite the scrumptious stay. Also rather appetising is the fact that Digeddi Wildlife Camping is only a 45-minute walk from Hay-on-Wye, a town famed for its bookshops. There are canoe hire companies within five minutes’ drive of the site who will gladly organise a day’s river tour, ending at a pub for a pint and a snack in typical British fashion too. Whether you’re on a solo jaunt or on a family get-together, feel free to launch any water crafts from the designated point on site instead if you like. If the mountains are calling your name instead and pony trekking sounds like an ace way to experience them, just ask for the details at reception. As a family-run site, all of the team have a hand in maintenance, cleaning and welcoming guests (and they all have heads full of useful information too). The guests’ wellbeing is always at the front of their minds, of course. When it comes to practical matters, there are hot showers housed in a horse trailer on site and shops, pubs, cafés, restaurants, a supermarket, a cinema and a post office in Hay-on-Wye.

What customers say

This campsite offers spacious, private pitches with stunning views, often situated by a beautiful river with convenient access. Visitors praise the friendly, welcoming hosts and the clean facilities, including unique shower setups. While the location is excellent for exploring Hay-on-Wye and enjoying nature, some guests noted that facilities can be a walk from pitches, particularly those by the river. There are occasional comments about noise from local events and a suggestion for clearer communication regarding facilities like rubbish disposal. Aggressive resident dogs have also been mentioned as a concern.

Bow Top gypsy caravan

Liked Mainly helpful staff
Beautiful views and sunrises and sets
Bow top caravan a novelty
Kingfishers , Dippers and other beautiful birds down by the river.
Nearby countryside eg. Arthur’s Stone.

Disliked Too many dogs off leads (not the campsite’s fault)- we didn’t want to say hello
Proximity of other pitches with no hedge
Children being noisy late at night (not the campsite’s fault)
Long walks to toilets (maybe more paths through long grass could be made, eg by shepherds hut )
Initial impression seemed scruffy (though this improved once we had settled in)

Lucy -. 5 reviews

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Quiet and peaceful by the river, campsite was spaced out really well to give everyone privacy. Owners were super lovely, helped me out when I forgot my tent pegs! Shower was hot and the main toilets next to them were well maintained.

Disliked Difficult to get to on foot from Hay-on-Wye, and the river pitches especially have a long walk to access water, showers/main toilets, or the washing up sink. There's also no ability to throw away rubbish at the site, you have to take it with you.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Excellent location of our pitch in shade right next to the river for dips and dog paddles.
Cute loo and showers in horse boxes.
Friendly owner.
Remote enough from Hay to feel in the wild however near enough for a long walk in to Hay. We will be returning.

Local attractions

Whether you’re a hiker or biker, there should be a trail you fancy somewhere in the local area. Biking trails are plentiful upon Hay Bluff (15 minutes’ drive), or over at The Begwns (20 minutes), which has stunning views over the Brecon Beacons. The Black Mountains (around 20 minutes) are, of course, packed with trails of all sorts, but if you’re looking to cross off the famed Brecon Beacons walk of Pen y Fan (half an hour), it’s pretty easy to reach the big peak too. Activities-wise, you’re by no means limited to hiking and biking. Gorge walking, clay pigeon shooting, archery, caving, climbing and go-karting can be booked with the activity centre five minutes’ drive away. Throw some rowing, windsurfing or paddleboarding into the mix too. Any of these makes an excellent way to experience Llangorse Lake (20 minutes), a glacial lake that has the only crannog (artificial inhabited island) in Wales and England.
