  • Pop-up pitches on a farm with gorgeous Monmouthshire hill views
  • A 20-minute drive to the Forest of Dean, and 25 minutes to Symonds Yat
  • Wild camping with kids’ games and woodland walks
If you’re lucky, you’ll get to see at least one of the amazing sunsets at Red Sky at Night Campsite near Monmouth – but if you don’t, there’s mighty compensation in the shape of the spectacular views from just about everywhere on the site. And of course, on clear nights, the night skies are diamond-bright with stars. This family-run camping field on a livestock farm is managed on very laidback lines. Pitch up wherever you like and feel free to park by your tent. Raised campfires are allowed and you can hire firepits and grills (the owners sell sausages from the farm) and buy kindling. You can bring your dogs too (take them for walks in the adjoining woods) but just be sure to keep them under control around the animals. Kids are certainly carefully looked after here. Read the note left on a tree for mini-campers and join a teddy bear hunt through the woods. Round and about the site, your offspring can entertain themselves on rope swings and a climbing frame or by making dens and following a mini-tractor course across the camping field. There is also a little play area for smaller kids. Wild camping this may be (there’s no electricity on site, please note) but there are two nicely designed compost loos and a fresh water tap. So bring your guitar, light that fire, break out the barbecue and enjoy the chilled vibe.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked This is our second visit to Red Sky at Night, and we absolutely love it. It's quiet, peaceful, and family-friendly. Lots of space around the pitches.

There are fire bowls to rent along with wood to purchase incase you forget. There was a pizza van that came up on the saturday evening - not sure if this is regular or not. It's about five or six miles from Monmouth town centre itself which makes it really handy if you need to pop to the shops

Disliked There's nothing to dislike about it - allows you to disconnect from the world and just enjoy a lovely break.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked One of our favourite sites.Very basic & rustic.The pitches are evenly spaced out giving you privacy.The views are stunning. Fabulous hosts too.Thanks for having us.

We didn’t mind the compost loo’s but some people may prefer a flushing toilet. So something to bear in mind. We did think showers would be great even if they were cold. Other than that a great campsite.

Local attractions

Hikers can try the Three Castles Walk – it starts right outside the farm gate. It leads to White Castle (10 minutes’ drive), where you can do tours and tastings at the vineyard; Grosmont Castle (15 minutes, stop off at the village pub); and National Trust - Skenfrith Castle (five minutes), where you can cool off with a bit of wild swimming. There’s golf, fishing and horse riding within a 15-minute drive, while the Forest of Dean has lots of woodland walks for the whole family, including the magical Sculpture Trail with glittering stained-glass artworks tucked among the trees. And of course in the Wye Valley National Landscape (both 20 minutes), you can get out on the river in kayaks, canoes and coracles at Symonds Yat (25 minutes). Any rainy days are taken care of with visits to the indoor Wye Valley Butterfly Zoo (20 minutes), a family swim at Monmouth Leisure Centre (15 minutes) or an outing to the cinema in Abergavenny (20 minutes).
