Local attractions

Walkers are always welcome at Walkers Cottage and the footpath to Hay-on-Wye from the camping field joins up with the spectacular Wye Valley Walk. The walk to Hay-on-Wye is just under three miles and crosses the Hardwicke Brook where you might catch a glimpse of a brown trout or kingfisher. There are many miles of footpaths around the Wye Valley and the site is also just a short drive away from more walking at the Brecon Beacons National Park.
