  • Peaceful farm site within easy reach of the Brecon Beacons
  • Hay-on-Wye and Brecon within 20 minutes' drive
  • Massages available on site
Settle in at Bryndu Caravan and Camping, a family-friendly site on a traditional working farm less than five minutes’ drive from the small Powys village of Llyswen. In the mid-Wales countryside and 10 minutes from the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park, Bryndu is a top spot for outdoorsy hols: two long-distance walking paths are within 20 minutes of base, and hiking, biking and riding trails through the Beacons are close to hand. There’s fishing on the Wye too where it passes through Llyswen, and canoeing and kayaking along the Wye from the nearby village of Glasbury. That’s a whole lot of activity, so retreat to the site for a little reward… Luckily, massages are available on site. Evenings can be seen to with a well-timed stay: the site is within easy reach of the Royal Welsh Show, Brecon and Hay-on-Wye, leaving town types, book nerds and anyone mooooooved by agriculture well entertained. Please note that strict quiet hours are in force after 10pm. There are also dog restrictions on site.

Plock electric optional hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Wonderful friendly welcome. Given a tour of facilities and shown to our pitch. We had EHU and a tap is located on the pitch too to save that walk across a field for water. Very clean grey water and chemical loo disposal area. Immaculate toilet block with laundry facilities and washing up area. Gorgeous hot showers and even a hairdryer and make up mirrors - luxury! There is a small shop with essentials and you can order a coffee or tea here. Book exchange and some games for children plus information on areas of interest and places to eat are very useful extras. The wake to a view of Pen y Fan is special. The Black Mountain activity centre is down the road where we hired a canoe for a leisurely paddle down the canal. The owners really care about their guests and provide an excellent experience, We cannot fault this site and will return.

Disliked: There is road noise but the positives outweigh this for us.

Local attractions

Active types who haven’t yet got their fill of adventure should stick around the Brecon Beacons (10 minutes’ drive from base) a little longer. Once hikes, bikes and rides are truly exhausted, there’s still climbing, caving, canoeing and sailing to try out, all the while keeping eyes glued to the skies (and the ground) for lapwings, red kites and reed warblers. To take in all the spectacular views of the Beacons and the rest of the Mid Wales countryside, make a pitstop 10 minutes from the site in the small market town of Talgarth on the edge of the national park. This is a starting point for walks up the highest of the Black Mountains, Waun Fach, and for hang gliding trips over the park and mountain range. The amphibious should swim along to Llangorse lake, 20 minutes from base – it's the largest natural lake in southern Wales, and there’s a whole lot here to keep visitors busy, from kayaking and canoeing, to paddleboarding and windsurfing, to sailing and catch-and-release fishing. Prefer to keep things peaceful? Opt for some quiet time exploring the past with a stop at the National Trust’s Cwmmau Farmhouse (check opening days before visiting) half an hour away, or trek to the other side of the Brecon Beacons for the Brecon Mountain Railway, Blaenavon Ironworks and the Big Pit National Coal Museum.
