Pitches have plenty of distance between them

Eco-friendly pop-up site in the Brecon Beacons National Park
An easy 10-minute walk from Crickhowell; Raglan 25 minutes' drive
Lovely mountain views; access to canalside walks and bike rides

A Powys pop-up site where you can park the car and then spend your days exploring on foot? That’s the deal at Camp Crick, in the gorgeous Usk Valley 10 minutes’ stroll from the pretty and historic market town of Crickhowell. The views from here are fine indeed – the site looks out at the Sugar Loaf and Table Mountain, with Llangattock Mountain behind. The Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal runs past the fields too, for easy access to miles of safe cycling and walking along the towpath. For more walking options there are plenty of trails that lead off up into the mountains (see if you can find the very rare floating bog below the escarpment on Llangattock Mountain…) The car’s unlikely to see much action at all around here, in fact – that proximity to town means that you can easily walk to Crickhowell’s independent shops, cafés and pubs (and in fact there are a couple of pubs offering great food even closer in the village of Llangattock). Naturally, the team here have an interest in preserving this pretty part of the world, so they’ve set the site up as an eco-friendly off-grid place to stay. Generously sized pitches are tucked away within the hedges and well spaced so you’ll have plenty of room to soak up the surrounds and look out for the wildlife (resident tawny owls and buzzards are often seen, along with a wide range of songbirds). Facilities include compost loos (with biodegradable loo roll provided), cold showers and washing-up stations using spring water (you’ll need to boil it before drinking). There’s no parking by pitches (in order to preserve the peace and the wild flowers), but trailers and wheelbarrows are provided to haul your kit.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: The campsite pitches were generously spaced apart which meant there was a good amount of privacy. The facilities (toilets, showers, sinks) were all incredibly clean and were mostly stocked with the essentials like toilet roll. When we arrived to the camp the staff greeted us and were extremely helpful and friendly. Camp Crick is situated in area of oustanding natural beauty and the village and locals of Crickhowell were very friendly and helpful when it came to directions. I will definitley be back!
