  • Nearly-wild camping in the Wye Valley National Landscape
  • A 20-minute drive to Abaty Tyndyrn (Tintern Abbey); 15 to Symonds Yat
  • On an organic dairy farm with access to public footpaths
A limestone gorge, the river Wye and stunning destinations like the ruins of Abaty Tyndyrn (Tintern Abbey) – no wonder you’re looking at a break in the Wye Valley National Landscape. Well, launch your explorations at Troy Farm Camping… ‘Best of both worlds’ is a phrase that certainly applies at this site, where the nearly-wild pitches have stunning views on the edge of the Wye Valley and yet also stand 15 minutes’ walk away from the outskirts of Monmouth. In town, there are plenty of places to eat, drink or people-watch (or indeed, all three at the same time). If country walks are more your thing, Troy Farm Camping deserves another brownie point. It has easy access to three public footpaths heading to Penalt, Redbrook, Mitchel Troy and beyond. As for any of you who want to visit iconic Wye Valley destinations, the site is a 20-minute drive from Abaty Tyndyrn (Tintern Abbey) and 25 minutes from the Eagle's Nest lookout. About the site: the working dairy farm has 300 milking cows which you may well see grazing around the fields during your stay (that’s why it's kept dog-free). Vehicles must be left in the car park; the walk from the car park to the pitch’s ranges from around 55 to 200 metres, so you should bring a trolley if you think you'll need one. For quick trips out, a perfumery is opposite the site and there is a pottery studio a short drive away. Guided wild swimming sessions are available with a local company and can be arranged through the site.
