Plenty of walks nearby with stunning views.

Peaceful site on a private estate with listed buildings
A 10-minute drive to Crickhowell and 35 minutes to Hay-on-Wye
Five-mile stretch of the River Usk for salmon and trout fishing

A peaceful Powys stay, with stunning surroundings and stacks of space? Make your way to Glanusk Caravan Park, where relaxing stays can be had in the historic grounds of Glanusk Estate, one of Wales’ largest privately owned estates. It's also rather gorgeous, with a fine collection of features like walled gardens and Celtic standing stones to wander around, and listed buildings including the splendid turreted Tower Bridge over the River Usk. And it’s not just the views right there on site that are pretty special – the estate is surrounded by the epic scenery of the Brecon Beacons National Park, and has spectacular views up to the Black Mountains too. Country pursuits like cycling, pony trekking and canoeing can all be had nearby, and there’s easy access to these and other outings via the nearby A40 and B4558. Spending time on site is an equally fine prospect however – and that goes for dogs too, who are most welcome to join you here. Fishing for trout and salmon is available on the five-mile private stretch of the River Usk. Ask on site about local ambles too – one member of the team is a Brecon Beacons Ambassador and has lots more suggestions up their sleeves. For a short stroll, head towards the award-winning high street in the town of Crickhowell (40 minutes away on foot) to source provisions from the butcher's shop, bakery and restaurants or browse boutiques for antiques, clothes, gifts and books. Too far? Stay on site and order a luxury hamper packed with locally produced goodies – let the team here know in advance and they'll sort out delivery to your pitch. Back at the park, an amenity building built in 2019 has disabled facilities, showers, underfloor heating, toiletries, towels and hairdryers; other amenities include waste disposal areas, dog and bike-washing points, and wifi.

Liked: Fabulous pitch. The owners were extremely friendly. All their facility were of a very high standard. The toilet and shower block was exceptionally clean and really appreciated the hair dryer facility.
We loved the position of the site, with access to plenty of walks along the river and canal, even up to the surrounding mountains.

Liked: It was a great night away with my girlfriend and dog, as she’s a little puppy having loads of space which wasn’t full of people really made it enjoyable for her and the two of us. The nice walks and the food we had delivered were a great addition, and we’d definitely come again.

Powered grass RV campsite

Liked: Fantastic campsite in an amazing location. Huge amount of walks, including by the Brecon and Monmouth canal and a woodland walk. About an hour from Crickhowell via the canal. Huge dog walking field. A quite site, with virtually no traffic noise. The communal fire-pit and log seating is a great idea. Very friendly hosts. Will return.

Disliked: Very clean facilities, but shower cubicles are too small, requiring one to get dressed/undressed outside the cubicle, leaving cloth outside.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Firstly the views are fantastic, nestled in a valley between the Brecon & Monmouth canal and the river Usk, which offers daily permits for trout fishing. The campsite has very clean facilities and the staff cannot make you feel more welcome, even a text ensuring your comfortable on your first night. You can stretch your legs along the many paths throughout the estate , visit some old pubs in Crickhowell or further afield in Brecon. Definitely value for money.

Route directions

Access to Glanusk Caravan Park is via the gates on the B4558 (Cwm Crawnon Road) as there is no access to the site from the A40. If you are approaching from the Brecon direction on the A40, do not turn right at Bwlch towards Llangynidr to access the site, as this will take you to a very narrow and impassable bridge. Instead, carry on past the main gates of the site, then turn right by the petrol station and head over the Crickhowell Bridge before turning right onto the B4558 (Cwm Crawnon Road).

Local attractions

Glanusk Caravan Park is within an International Dark Sky Reserve, the first International Dark Sky Reserve in Wales, so plan a bit of time to turn your eyes skywards after dusk – on a clear night you're bound to be treated to quite the display. For a taste of local history, take a trip to Blaenavon (25 minutes' drive), a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000 that's home to the Big Pit National Coal Museum, Blaenavon Ironworks, the World Heritage Centre and Blaenavon Heritage Railway. In Pantyscallog (half an hour), the Brecon Mountain Railway tells another historic story as it makes its way along the full length of Pontsticill Reservoir. For pubs, cafés and a small town with an award-winning high street, Crickhowell is within walking or cycling distance and hosts a walking festival, literary festival and numerous other events throughout the year. For more urban exploring, it's eight miles to Abergavenny, 12 miles to Brecon, 14 miles to Talgarth and 20 miles to Hay-on-Wye.
