Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked: Great location for lots of walks in the area. We had a private pitch to ourself with our own shower and toilet which was a huge plus. We also made good use of the sausage shack!

Disliked: Could do with a couple of hooks and maybe a little shelf in the shower

Shepherd's hut

Liked: Everything! The shepherd hut was perfect. Cosy, comfortable with a stunning view. We could have sat all day and stared out of the massive windows watching the lambs and the endless number of red kites that live in the area. Not to mention the sky at night when the stars were out.
The owner was so friendly and made us feel very welcome.
Pub was only a 10 minute walk away and the area is a haven for wildlife and beautiful walks.
We will definitely be booking another visit very soon!

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked: Not your average camping experience..... it's so much better!
We had the most relaxing stay at 'Top of the Rock Glamping'. Such a stunning rural location on a working farm, all farm animals you would expect - pigs, sheep, goats, horses, cows and the odd Cockerell. We had a private pitch with our own water tap, compost toilet and lovely warm shower. Really friendly welcome by Guy the host who even offered to help carry some of our things, bag of logs ready for us to light the amazing firepit that is actually old farm equipment, lovely touch.
Dark skies at night gave us so much opportunity to star gaze and listen to the owls.
We can't wait to come back!

Disliked: Absolutely nothing!

Shepherd's hut

Liked: Lovely rural location with fantastic views from the huge windows of our shepherds hut, no matter what the weather. Own private field, great for dogs. No overlooking, except by sheep!! Welcoming hosts, very clean and cozy hut. Easy walk along the lane to the village & local pub.

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked: Private camping area, own composting loo and excellent hot shower. We were greeted on arrival by the very friendly owner who helped us unload our heavy tent. The camping area is sheltered by an oak tree and a barn. It’s a lovely space and it’s not overlooked. We loved the flexibility of being able to pitch more than one tent. The supply of logs, a really nice touch and great fire pit out of an old tractor wheel. It’s a flattish pitch for being up a steep bank in Wales.

Disliked: This is a working farm, so not a dislike as much, as just be aware, the cockerels start crowing early - about 4:30am. If you’re a light sleeper you may want earplugs.

Local attractions

When you’re not busy tackling the huge numbers of walking, cycling and motorbiking routes in these parts, set your sights on Clywedog Reservoir (10 minutes’ drive) for fishing, hiking or paddleboarding tuition. That’ll give you a small taste of scenic reservoir landscapes, but Elan Valley (40 minutes) has more of all that, with splendid hikes around its five reservoirs. Enough spying on the water for now… turn your attention on the sky at the Red Kite Feeding Station (half an hour). The station runs daily feedings for those who’d like to watch the birds in flight. If you ever find yourself fancying a little sand and sea, pack your beach gear for the beaches of Aberystwyth (55 minutes), Aberdyfi (55 minutes) and Morfa Borth (an hour), calling by one of Llanidloes’ (10 minutes) pubs and restaurants on the way back.
