Liked: Beautiful, peaceful location. There's a small river next to the campsite – ideal for hot summer days, or quick post-run or post-cycle ice-baths (:
Very friendly staff, clean toilets, easy to find. They even had wifi. Would recommend.

Liked: Excellent getaway-from-it-all country site on the edge of the beautiful Brecon Beacons. Stunning site, fully serviced hard standing pitch overlooking river… 20 mins drive for fuel & supplies so we arrived prepared. Friendly and helpful staff and shower block well maintained. Incredible wildlife seen during our stay including squirrels, rabbits, owls, buzzards, red kites, robins, chaffinches, blue tits, nuthatches, tree creepers, dippers, sand martins (to name a few)!.. great base for river fishing. A tranquil site we intend to return to for a longer stay! 👍
Disliked: No dislikes although a few basic supplies in a shop on site would be a welcomed addition. No TV reception but that’s fine with us as this is a place to step away from routine and breath in the fresh country air (strong wi-fi if you need to stay connected)!

Fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site
Liked: The site itself is fine, probably just not for us. Overlooks a bend on the Irfon river - ideal for fishing. Site well maintained, although a bit water-logged.
Disliked: Unless you enjoy fishing, there is not much else on for families - although there is a very small playground hidden away.
There doesn't seem to be many local footpaths, so walks are on the roads which is less than ideal.

Will be returning 5 stars from me

Liked: Great little touring area, the site is clean and tidy. The individual wet rooms and toilet facilities were spotless and of an excellent standard, the underfloor heating was a bonus and I actually felt like you could shower and get dry properly unlike most pokey shower cubical son campsites. Location is perfect to visit nearby towns and lots of nice walks. The river on the site is lovely. Lin and her sister are great, texted before arriving and met us at the gate and came up to our pitch to make sure everything was ok, that was at 7.30pm! Will be returning for sure, we love to stay at 5 star small sites and this one ticked all the boxes.
Disliked: Nothing - everything was great
