Liked: Great pop up site, toilets and showers in the rugby club were clean and tidy (amazing hot showers) a very short walk to Brecon for pubs and walks, good phone signal
Disliked: Couldn’t find the washing up facilities Sadly camped on a weekend there was a rally in the neighbouring field - not the fault of rugby club but it was horrifically noisy until late (maybe worth checking in future if you stay?) there are also kennels next to the site, didn’t bother us as the terrible music drowned out everything but dogs do bark/howl at (I guess) feeding times do something to be aware of

Liked: Nice and close to the rugby pitch were we watched Saturdays match. Facilities were always clean and tidy. Site was quiet and we had plenty of space at our pitch. Close to the town and lovely walks for dogs near the canal and river. Great experience, can’t wait to come back.

Good site but dependant on other campers due to lack of organisation.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Flat pitch in convenient location, a short walk into Brecon, and near canal and river. Nice views of mountains.
Disliked: Very poor facilities for washing and toilets. Long walk across two rugby pitches to get to only toilet. No bins for recycling. No obvious campsite manager to check in or report any issues. Felt like we were wild camping on the rugby pitch! Hadn't realized the pitches were actually around the edge of a rugby pitch and that there would be training matches on. We stayed for 4 nights. The first night there was a Porta cabin with toilets, mirrors, bins and sinks. This was then removed and all we had left was the toilet facilities at the rugby club. These were only cleaned once in 4 days and were pretty dirty until they were cleaned - loads of dead insects everywhere. Female facilities were 1 toilet in a men's toilet and only sink to clean teeth was right next to a dirty urinal. No provision for cleaning dishes and no standpipes near camping pitches. Just a hose and tap at back of rugby pavilion. Showers were not lockable and just communal. They had made a shower screen out of wood and shower curtains to try and give some privacy. Not fault of rugby club but also house adjoining rugby club has what sounds like a pack of hunting hounds that barked and howled. Sometimes in the middle of the night.
