Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Ok

Disliked DofE grouped on a Sunday evening on a hot weekend. The site had clearly been busy, and rubbish was being blown about by strong winds, and the toilets were unclean. Not a great first impression.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Fantastic location for four waterfalls hike and great that I could pitch up in the morning then go hiking

Disliked the showers - I used the additional showers near the owners home - the thermostat was broken in one meaning it was either boiling hot or freezing cold and the other one didn't work at all

Disliked No fridge/freezer. Most sites have a freezer to keep ice blocks but not here so no way to keep anything cool in this heat.

Showers - doors don't fit so there's a big gap down the side

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Everything was perfect, the facilities were very clean, the site itself was in the most amazing location with beautiful views, very close to the waterfalls, the pitch was huge and being able to pick where you pitch up was a huge bonus also being able to have your own fire pit at night was lovely and the cheap wood they provided was excellent. Also staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Amazing experience!!.

Disliked Only issue we had was near zero service but what can you expect while on a farm in wales XD

What customers say

This is a relaxed, back-to-basics campsite with spectacular views in the heart of the Brecon Beacons. It's highly praised for its unbeatable location, offering easy walking access to the Four Waterfalls trail and other scenic hikes. Campfires are permitted, adding to the rustic charm. While the facilities are described as simple but clean and adequate, some visitors noted a need for more toilets and showers during peak times, and some pitches can be sloped. The friendly owners and peaceful atmosphere are consistently highlighted, making it a recommended choice for nature lovers and hikers seeking a quiet escape.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked Absolutely spectacular scenery. You can't really ask for better. You're literally in the heart of Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons). Good washing up facilities with water provided. Lovely shower and toilet block near the cottage. The campsite was extremely busy when I stayed and did think that perhaps the amount of toilets and showers would not be enough to go round but the ones I used were very clean. I did not use the toilets/shower block on the main camp field though so can't comment on how that was.
A lot of people were quite noisy well into midnight playing music and partying, cars coming and going etc but it didn't disturb me, can't comment on what others experienced. In the morning it was very peaceful.
However even with the amount of people there was still ample room between pitches and choice of pitch which was good. I did feel safe.
Do probably need a headtorch as some parts are not lit at night.

Liked Great little place in the middle of knowhere with clean and convenient facilities to take you back to basics and escape the business!

Disliked The field is quite hilly in a lot of areas so you need to get there early to find a flatter pitch.

Local attractions

Break into the Brecon Beacons however you please… taste the whisky from the copper-pot stills on a tour of Penderyn Distillery Visitor Centre (15 minutes' drive) perhaps? Grab a co-adventurer and strap yourselves in for a one or two-person zipwire ride from the tower of a former Colliery coal mining site at Zip World Tower (20 minutes)? Or board the Brecon Mountain Railway (40 minutes) and make your way into the mountains on the original mountain line? Mountain biking might make it onto your itinerary in these parts, as there are a couple of options within driving distance of the site. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a newbie or a pro at BikePark Wales (35 minutes), as there are lots of different forest trails. Dare Valley Country Park and Gravity Family Bike Park (35 minutes) is another good option for families, especially those who are new to the game. At this site, you’ll only be a short drive from the National Showcaves Centre for Wales (25 minutes). Here, kids are likely to love the lifesized dinosaurs and the caverns. Plus, there are lots of things to learn about the history of the dinosaurs and other cool parts of the past in the museum and Iron Age farm.
