  • Hosted eco-friendly site surrounded by spectacular Powys countryside
  • Eco buildings surrounded by a wildflower camping meadow
  • Straw-bale kitchen, wooden play area, toilets and showers
A rural retreat awaits at the peaceful Powys base of Sychpwll Centre, a walker's paradise in the Welsh countryside, two miles from the village of Llandrinio. The centre houses a range of eco-friendly buildings, surrounded by a wildflower camping meadow. As the site backs onto the River Vyrnwy, both it and the surrounding countryside are an excellent base for guests who want to have an environmentally-friendly stay among spectacular scenery. Guests are welcome to use the centre's straw-bale kitchen for indoor cooking; outdoors, both barbecues and campfires are allowed. Several country pubs with good food and drink are close by, and guests will be within 30 minutes' drive of the market towns of Shrewsbury, Welshpool and Oswestry. The site also has a toilet block with instant warm water and showers.

Erin R.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch (wild)

Liked There was so much we loved about this site. The owner was friendly, helpful and happy to tell us the story of the site and the buildings. The pitches were spacious and peaceful and we were able to enjoy the natural surroundings. There were just enough other campers for us adults and children alike to make friends. It was a real novelty to put our Prosecco in a real fridge on arrival so we could celebrate pitching up in style. Personally I enjoyed the opportunity to swim in the river. The nearby pub/Indian restaurant is highly recommended too; great service and great food within walking distance.

Liked This campsite is perfect! The host was lovely and accommodating for our late arrival, the peacefulness of the site was wonderful. The shower/toilet facilities were the best we have seen at a site as well as the bonus of the kitchen with a dining table and pots and pans to use. The stay was 10/10 and we will be returning!

Local attractions

Based a mile from where the unpolluted River Vrynwy meets the River Severn, Sychpwll is cosy in winter and normally with a good climate in summer. There’s more than enough to do to keep everyone happy all year round, with those coming for walking or cycling holidays particularly having lots of choice. The hiking in this area gives world-class views, such as the famous Offa’s Dyke Path or one of the three routes to the landmark Rodney’s Pillar. Visitors can also visit local farmers’ markets or nearby Lake Vrynwy, or try their hand at one of the many activities nearby, including climbing, fishing, horse riding and watersports. Or, for those who like to hit a ball as hard as possible, tennis is available in town and there’s a golf course within half an hour’s drive. The market towns of Shrewsbury, Welshpool and Oswestry are around seven miles miles away for shopping, and there are plenty of days out at local attractions such as historic Powys Castle and the Welshpool to Llanfair Light Steam Railway. Culture vultures can go slightly further afield to Ludlow and Shrewsbury (around 13 miles away), for festivals, arts events and nights on the town.
