Boris on a little walk to visit the shepards hut and the sleeping giant lodge

Peaceful farm site in the Brecon Beacons, five minutes from Abercraf
A five-minute drive to the National Showcaves; 45 mins to Pen y Fan
Animals to meet on site; pizzas and snacks available in the evenings

So quiet you can hear the owls hooting after dark – sound like the kind of place for you? Then get along to Glamorgan and Cae Glas Camping, in the Brecon Beacons National Park and five minutes’ drive from the village of Abercraf. That blissful peace and quiet is the reason most guests cite for choosing a stay here – and as such you’ll be asked to keep the noise down, particularly after dark, to ensure a sense of calm for both visitors and wildlife. To further boost that peaceful vibe facilities have been kept to a minimum, but all guests will have access to toilets, showers and a washing-up area and are welcome to bring along dogs and barbecues. There's a firepit area here too, and firewood can be purchased on site. There are some stunning mountain views to be had here, and sitting down to admire them for a while is a most rewarding option. That said, there’s plenty of activity nearby should you wish: this is waterfall walk country, and a riding centre just down the road that can sort pony treks for all the family. It’s also a short drive to get to places like Craig y Nos Castle and the National Showcaves Centre for Wales or a slightly longer one (about 45 minutes) to Pen y Fan, the National Botanic Garden of Wales and the beaches of the Gower Peninsula.

Nicola G. May 2025

Non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch

Liked: Just got back from Cae Glas camping 🏕 B/H weekend
It was amazing!

The hosts Mel & Aaron are the nicest friendliest people and can't do enough to help and make sure you're stay is perfect.

The field is lovely and so well kept, it's nice as only 10 pitches allowed no overcrowding and not noisy.
The surroundings are amazing, fields and mountains as far as the eye can see, so peaceful and relaxing, just breathtaking.

They also have a shepards hut with hot tub and a hut with a hot tub to book,
both look lush!

They have 2 toilets & a shower, it the best shower I've ever used on a campsite I may add, it's a POWER shower and the shower cubicle is huge.
The block is fully heated too, so as soon as you step foot in the room you feel the warmth, it's so nice.

Mel has a lil shop she does the most amazing Pizzas 🍕 (to order)
Hot & cold drinks
Snacks and more.
They also sell firewood £7.50 for a big box more than enough for your firepit.

They also have the cutest lil farm with animals who are so friendly and you can pet them when you want to, they have....
Pygmy Goats 🐐
Pigs 🐖 (my favourite) 🙂
Chickens 🐔
2 beautiful Highland cows
Donkeys 🫏
They also do Llama 🦙 trekking, you can go for a walk through the fields with them on leads, so adorable to see.

They have a full recycling ♻️ station set up there too which is great 👍

I also had a fantastic signal 5G

I think I've pretty much covered it all lol!
I would 100% recommend Cae Glas and we can't wait for our next visit 😍

Thank You Mel & Aaron for the best weekend!!!!!!!

Local attractions

Once you’ve dragged yourselves away from the views on site, it’s time to explore the surrounding area. Start close by with a horseback trek from the local stables (five minutes’ drive) or a walk to Henrhyd Falls (10 minutes). The National Showcaves Centre for Wales (five minutes) is a fab place to visit on any day, but makes a particularly good option for a wet-weather day out. If the nippers need a little break from all the scenery admiring, perhaps they’d appreciate a visit to meet the cheeky residents of Wales Ape & Monkey Sanctuary (10 minutes). And if the grownups need a treat to spur them along to the end of a hike, maybe a little something from the whisky and gin selections at Penderyn Distillery (25 minutes)? A bit further afield there’s plenty to explore around the Brecon Beacons National Park, including the splendid Four Falls Walk (half an hour) and the uphill challenge of Pen y Fan (45 minutes), the tallest British peak south of Snowdonia. The National Botanic Garden of Wales and Mumbles beach are both 45 minutes away if you’re after something a little less energetic.
