Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: First time camping, really enjoyed that it was a small campsite so we could take are time to learn the ropes. The facilities were super clean and you had everything thing you needed (washing up liquid, hand soap, washing up bowl, kettle, plates and cutlery) The owner (Rosie) made it super easy and clear where everything was and how it worked. Perfect for any campers that are looking to get out the way with some peace and quiet!

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: This is the most beautiful secluded campsite. We were blessed with good weather which made it the perfect stay. The night sky is stunning and I even saw a shooting star! The children loved being able to run around in nature and the novelty of the compost toilet, which was great and very clean. The shower was a highlight and the nicest outdoor shower I have had. Communication was fantastic. I would highly recommend.

Disliked: We loved it all

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: A really beautiful and peaceful site, just a few large pitches dotted around a meadow. Compost toilets and hot shower which were always spotless. Our girls (3 and 5) had a lovely time playing in the long grass and paddling in the stream. A very warm welcome from Rosie (and her dog Tilly) who was so helpful. Rural location but large supermarket within 20 mins drive.

Disliked: No, nothing. It was pretty much perfect.

Local attractions

Carmarthen (40 minutes' drive) is the legendary birthplace of Merlin the Wizard, but today it’s probably better known for its indoor and outdoor markets selling everything from bespoke jewellery to artisan breads. The town’s big-brand shops and cinema are also just the job for the occasional rainy Welsh day. If you’re keen to up those green credentials and explore on foot or by pedal power, there’s top-notch walking and cycling in the Brecon Beacons National Park (10 minutes) and the Black Mountain (20 minutes). An added bonus for sporty types is the challenging mountain biking trail in Cwm Rhaeadr (20 minutes), considered one of the best areas in the UK. The beaches of west Wales, Mumbles and the Gower Peninsula (all about an hour) are ready and waiting for family adventures in rock pools and burning off energy on the sand. Closer to base camp, you can explore the National Botanic Gardens of Wales, the hilltop ruins of Carreg Cennen Castle (both 30 minutes) or the deer park and ornate 17th-century mansion at Dinefwr (20 minutes).
