  • Adults-only farm site in the Brecon Beacons with stunning rural views
  • A 10-minute drive to Pontypool; 20 minutes to Llandegfedd Reservoir
  • Working farm with cattle, sheep and pigs; campfires permitted
Away to the Brecon Beacons National Park with a plan to tackle a mountain or few? Monmouthshire site Court Bleddyn Farm is 10 minutes’ drive away from Pontypool and in a handy position for getting out to the likes of the Sugar Loaf, Skirrid and Blorenge. And it also happens to be on the route of the Cambrian Way for those seeking stopovers on long-distance treks. Don’t worry if all the talk of mountains and multi-day walks sounds like not your kind of thing… you can also head here for some splendid seclusion, simply putting your feet up to enjoy the great views over the Little Mountain and Vale of Usk or watching the farm’s cattle, sheep and Tamworth pigs going about their daily business. Plan your days however you wish, then head back to the site for a relaxed alfresco evening: it’s all very laidback here, with campfires and barbecues allowed and simple facilities in the form of a shower, toilet block, portable toilets and a washing-up area. The nearest small supermarket is five minutes’ drive away, and there are more options for eating and shopping in Pontypool.

What customers say

Court Bleddyn Farm boasts killer views in a chill rural spot. Guests rave about the ripper hosts, roomy sites (often in wildflower fields!), and seeing the farm animals. Facilities are basic, with an "off-grid" vibe, but usually clean and tidy – think a decent shower & dunny. Great for hikes and exploring, with Pontypool nearby. Some found it a bit noisy at times, and a few sites weren't totally level.

Liked Excellent location, beautiful views, lovely and helpful owners. Pitches in a wild flower meadow with plenty of space and the feeling of seclusion. There was porta-shower which was clean and warm, wash up station and a porta toilet - all very clean and well maintained. Working farm, we got to meet the new born piglets!

Liked Court Bleddyn Farm is situation in a beautiful location only a short walk from Pontypool. The family are lovely and very welcoming. Facilities were basic with a bit of an off-grid feel but had a very welcome shower and a toilet.

Liked Beautiful location. We loved looking around the farm and we were even given a tour of the pigs and their new borns. We felt very welcome but also left to our own devices to explore and take in the views.
