  • 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

This campsite boasts spacious, well-separated sites, many by the river. Guests loved the quiet vibe, helpful staff, and gorgeous scenery. Facilities like showers and restrooms are generally clean and work well, though some noted the walk from sites. Many enjoyed being close to Hay-on-Wye for kayaking and other activities. A few mentioned minor points like facility distance or no bins on-site.

Huw T.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Absolutely loved camping here - a stunning view and stunning location near the river. Took my two young boys for an adventure and did a hike nearby, the proximity to Hay, Brecon and activities around such as hiking and canoeing is brilliant. The family were lovely, we really enjoyed staying here and their hospitality.

Disliked Disappointed but totally understood the ban on campfires, it was really the only downer to our stay - but as I say, understandable given the dryness of the ground - but it could be good to update that on the listing as the ban has been in place for 6 weeks.

Disliked No walks from the campsite without going through the reception yard area where we couldn’t take our dogs as there were resident dogs loose.

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.
