Our sky viewing dome, to look at the night skies. with the rolling welsh hills behind.

  • Peaceful escape in a dark skies community on the Welsh border
  • Riverside setting a mile from the market town of Presteigne
  • Dog-friendly site; stargazing dome with telescope
Sitting alongside the River Lugg and with views of the hills, Rockbridge Park is a super spot for a relaxing break away from busy everyday life. This small family-run site on the Wales-England border is within easy reach of days out around the countryside, plus the villages and towns of Powys and beyond. 
 When not roaming the region, spend time lying back on site with your nose in a book, fishing in the river or setting off on strolls nearby. Even a wander around the site has its rewards – look out for the dragonfly and wind sculptures, then relax by the waterfall while you take in the views. Four-legged friends are welcome to join you here too – they’ll be able to scamper around at the secure dog walk or accompany you on one of the many trails running from the park. And don’t worry about them getting into muddy puddles – a dog wash back on site will take care of that. Facilities for human guests are nicely thought out too, with wifi, hot showers, a launderette and a fridge among the provisions. The highlight, however, surely has to be the stargazing dome – kitted out with a telescope and bean bags, it’s a great spot to take advantage of Rockbridge being in a ‘dark skies community’. Heading out, it’s a five-minute drive to Presteigne, a traditional Welsh market town with a good selection of pubs, restaurants, takeaways, cafés and shops (most of them dog-friendly). For other places to visit nearby, chat to the team on site – they’ve always got lots of top tips to dish out.

What customers say

A lovely, peaceful riverside spot. Spotless facilities, spacious pitches, and super-friendly staff. Guests loved the calm setting, river access, and handy location. The on-site observatory was a real hit! A few noted shower pressure but most want to come back.

Fully-serviced gravel and concrete caravan site (premium)

Liked Fantastic site - really friendly greeting on arrival with lots of useful info. Pitches large and well spaced, lovely river walk where our dogs could paddle, great dog park complete with basket of tennis balls and toys. Lovely circular walk into Presteigne, loos clean and even had a dog wash. More attention to detail than we have come across at any other site. We will definitely be back 👍👍

Powered grass and gravel caravan site

Liked It was a really peaceful stay and the pitches gave you plenty of space between us and our neighbours. The facilities were really good and there was even a specific place were you could wash the dog! Whilst we did not meet the team on site we did contact them prior to arrival and they were helpful and gave us some good advice. We were also sent an email about the hot weather and local events which was unexpected but nice to receive.

Loved the site for many reasons, and the local area very interesting.

Liked The whole park is a delight, very quiet & peaceful! Tent pitches are spacious and nicely tucked away from the road. It is a dog friendly site with great amenities for them including an enclosed field & raised dog shower. Couldn’t fault this place & we will definitely be returning soon.

Local attractions

Presteigne is a compact spot but it’s well worth swinging by for a look at The Judge's Lodging, an award-winning museum five minutes’ drive away that gives an insight into the grandeur of the masters’ lives on the top floors versus the servants who lived down below. Not so much further on is Knighton (10 minutes) with its community and arts centres for rainy days, along with a local railway link and access to Glyndŵr's Way for wanders along a path named after a Welsh legend. Another 10 minutes (20 from the park) from there is the Small Breeds Farm Park and Owl Centre for a glimpse of animals ranging from miniature horses to nocturnal birds. Top towns are scattered around this rural region too: think Leominster (30 minutes away) for sights like grand Berrington Hall (40 minutes) with its views over to the Black Mountains; the famed book and festival town of Hay-on-Wye (35 minutes); or Ludlow to see the castle and Tudor buildings or peruse posh boutiques (40 minutes).
