Positiv Unlimited pitch sizes, great facilities and the owners are very pleasant. The scenery is great and the fact it’s still a working farm.

Highly recommended

Positiv Large pitch, plenty of room. Everything was spotless.

Negativ Could do with a few more toilets due to the size of the site. Maybe a footbridge over the river near to the railway bridge would be helpful.

Positiv Fantastic stay for 3 nights. The hosts couldn’t do enough for us and were so helpful. Showers super hot and all facilities so clean. The area is great for walking and can highly recommend the shepherds pie at the horse and jockey which is a lovely 10 minute walk away. We will be back.

Negativ Having to come home.

Positiv The campsite is in a really pretty location with lovely walks nearby, which was definitely a positive. Check-in and check-out were also very relaxed and easy, with just a simple phone call and being told to pitch up wherever we liked, which made arrival stress-free.

Negativ We ended up staying on the back field where the grass was very long. I personally feel campsite grass should be kept shorter and better maintained.

The toilet and shower block was also disappointing. The toilets and showers were all in the same building, with a ladies’ cubicle next to a shared cubicle, then another cubicle for men. I really didn’t like this setup and wouldn’t have booked if I had known I could be using the toilet right next to a man.

In the morning, one of the toilets was left in a really unpleasant state with what looked like a poo explosion everywhere. It was not nice at all and made me feel uncomfortable using the facilities again, so I didn’t use the showers at all.

There were also multiple dogs off lead running around the field. We had brought our own dog, who doesn’t get on well with dogs off lead, so this caused stress for us throughout the stay.

Because of the long grass, unclean toilet facilities, and dogs being off lead, I personally wouldn’t stay again.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hello Jade. Sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy your stay. May I just add - you picked where you wanted to pitch, there are many areas that are mowed grass which were available to pitch on.
The toilets are checked and cleaned every couple of hours. Sorry you had an unfortunate find. I cannot check after every person uses the loo. Nobody’s ever complained of the ‘set up’ before as you can see in all our previous reviews.

Positiv My second stay at the lovely Panpwnton Farm.

The site itself feels remote despite being a short walk into the nearby town. Dark skies, and peaceful nights listening to the babbling river Teme. Great walking nearby in the English and Welsh countryside.

A popup cafe is open during busy times offering breakfast baps, coffee, tea, cakes etc. The facilities are always clean and include a communal fridge, microwave and kettle.

Firepits are available for hire and wood for purchase.

Roxy and Will are great hosts and I know I will be back for a third visit before long.

Highly recommended!

Positiv Spacious pitch, friendly owners, Beautful site, kids loved the stream we pitched up next to and the area itself is wonderful. There’s a platform with the English/Welsh boarder the kids can stand on only a 5 minute stroll up river. We spent most of the day skimming rocks and the kids were able to just be kids with no electronics and it was heartwarming to see. The toilets and showers are decent. There’s fridge/ freezer for all to use and a kettle. This is the second time we have been and there were a few upgrades such as a little cafe serving baps and treats for dogs! Knighton itself is a lovely little town with everything you need and just by the offas dyke path is a huge park. There’s plenty around this site to keep you busy without needing to use the car. You can hire the fire pit £5 a night and purchase a bucket of logs for £5. Dogs are very welcome and catered for. If you follow the river it’ll take you to Knighton perhaps 20 minutes walking. You can join the offas dyke path along the way. Plenty of areas the kids can play in the stream.

Negativ This is nothing to do with the site or the owners. It’s to do with people and 2 families turned up at 9:30pm and starting setting up their tents and were still doing so until midnight right next to our tent. I mean who on earth turns up in the dark and starts setting up their tents! They were very loud and this just sullied the evening after having such a perfect day. This is more to do with people which I know you cannot predict/control it’s just not what you expect of other campers.

Positiv Beautiful views by the river, clean site and facilities, plenty of space, wonderful birdlife with plenty of red kites seen and even a kingfisher! Easy ten minute stroll to knighton with facilities there. Recommend visits to quirky knighton museum, amazing Spaceguard Centre and the Coop at the petrol station is a tardis and has everything you need including camping stuff.

Negativ All good!
