  • Dog-friendly Powys site close to the banks of the River Wye
  • A 45-minute walk from Hay-on-Wye, with canoe hire available nearby
  • Pebble beaches where guests can set up a firepit or barbecue
A location close to the banks of the River Wye is a good start for Digeddi Wildlife Camping… Then add to that gorgeous river views, well-spaced pitches and pebble beaches where guests can watch the sunset, and you’ve got the recipe for quite the scrumptious stay. Also rather appetising is the fact that Digeddi Wildlife Camping is only a 45-minute walk from Hay-on-Wye, a town famed for its bookshops. There are canoe hire companies within five minutes’ drive of the site who will gladly organise a day’s river tour, ending at a pub for a pint and a snack in typical British fashion too. Whether you’re on a solo jaunt or on a family get-together, feel free to launch any water crafts from the designated point on site instead if you like. If the mountains are calling your name instead and pony trekking sounds like an ace way to experience them, just ask for the details at reception. As a family-run site, all of the team have a hand in maintenance, cleaning and welcoming guests (and they all have heads full of useful information too). The guests’ wellbeing is always at the front of their minds, of course. When it comes to practical matters, there are hot showers housed in a horse trailer on site and shops, pubs, cafés, restaurants, a supermarket, a cinema and a post office in Hay-on-Wye.

What customers say

Beautiful, natural site with spacious, private pitches, many by the river, offering stunning views. Friendly, helpful hosts and a peaceful vibe are highlights, perfect for relaxing. Toilets/showers are generally clean but can be a bit of a walk. Occasional event noise and dog concerns noted. Pack out your rubbish!

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Great site within walking distance of Hay on Wye.
We arrived to a really warm welcome, offered a number of different pitches each with its own unique features.
Stay here if you want a quiet location next to a river with an excellent host. Five stars, would stay again.

Liked Great site, toilets really clean although the hot water tap toilets are a little walk from pitch! Huge pitches, plenty of room and the site is on the river. We stayed 1 night for Hay festival and walked there in about 40 minutes via small county lanes.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked The owners are very welcoming and helpful. The site is well maintained. Large pitches are nicely spaced out with beautiful views over the river. Very relaxing. Just outside of Hay town, it's a 30-40 minute walk but there is a nice quiet route through some back lanes. We stayed during the Hay festival and it was ideal. We will be back.

Disliked Nothing

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked I particularly liked the large pitch which was mown in a circular area, with paths mown through towards the toilets. I also liked that the pitches aren’t in a uniform layout, meaning that it doesn’t feel regimented. I was quite a way from other vans and I felt totally at ease, no catching of others conversations, or having to avoid contact.
Having been at Hay Festival all week what I needed was tranquility and I got it here.
It’s a short walk to the river, which I did do - very picturesque.
Warm was warm in showers and though rustic they were cleaned regularly and smelled pleasant.
Owner friendly, but not over the top, a friendly wave, quick chat.
Campsite is signposted off the main road, down a farm track and through gates into a yard.
Owner tells me that she’s v conscious of security so property very secure, it certainly felt it.

At times it was hard to believe a busy literary festival was only a couple of miles down the road. I cycled round the back lanes to avoid the main road.

Disliked A few times people cut through my pitch to save a bit of time walking to the toilet. This definitely felt like an invasion of privacy.
Maybe a sign up asking people not to do this and stick to the main route would help prevent this.
It’s a bit scruffy (but you soon see past that), don’t make any judgement til you’ve settled in.

Liked The separate pitches were tastefully done giving everyone their own private place.

The facilities were great, toilets at convenient places and very well functioning showers.

The river at the bottom of the hill was lovely also, icing on top of the cake

Local attractions

Whether you’re a hiker or biker, there should be a trail you fancy somewhere in the local area. Biking trails are plentiful upon Hay Bluff (15 minutes’ drive), or over at The Begwns (20 minutes), which has stunning views over the Brecon Beacons. The Black Mountains (around 20 minutes) are, of course, packed with trails of all sorts, but if you’re looking to cross off the famed Brecon Beacons walk of Pen y Fan (half an hour), it’s pretty easy to reach the big peak too. Activities-wise, you’re by no means limited to hiking and biking. Gorge walking, clay pigeon shooting, archery, caving, climbing and go-karting can be booked with the activity centre five minutes’ drive away. Throw some rowing, windsurfing or paddleboarding into the mix too. Any of these makes an excellent way to experience Llangorse Lake (20 minutes), a glacial lake that has the only crannog (artificial inhabited island) in Wales and England.
