Dog-friendly site on the bank of the river Grwyne
Footpaths to the Black Mountains; 25 minutes’ drive to Llangorse Lake
Two miles of fishing on site; barbecue, firepit and outdoor kitchen

Sink your teeth into the Black Mountains from Brecon Beacons Bell Tents… this scenic site is on the bank of the river Grwyne in the national park, so mornings could look like a bacon sandwich and brew by the riverside or fishing along the two-mile stretch. It’s remote here with the river, woodlands and meadows, but there’s a barbecue and firepit with a well-stocked woodpile to keep the evenings lively enough and a public footpath that leads to summits in the Black Mountains or the Grwyne Valley. When you’re after a cuppa post-hike, just slide into the covered kitchen outdoors, where there’s a gas cooker and electric coolbox. The tent has a hot shower and toilet, a double bed with a memory foam mattress, a double futon and a tent stove. Perhaps follow the riverbank down to Llangenny village (15 minutes’ walk), where there’s a country pub with fine ales and good grub, or venture to Crickhowell (five minutes’ drive) for pubs, cafés, independent shops and a butchers… or Abergavenny (15 minutes) for that, and markets too. Otherwise, places deliver food locally – the site will bring it to you upon arrival. There’s parking by the site for those with four-wheel drives and another car park a short walk away (get a lift in the tractor if you have lots of luggage).

Bryn Hafod - Summer on the Hill primitive forest floor tent campsite

Liked: Very secluded area, with very little noise from the nearby road. A beautiful stream to hike down to the nearby pub.

Disliked: The tent was preset up, which was amazing. But there were a few medium sized stones under the ground sheet, and they were accidentally stepped on a few times and were painful. I think that should have been checked and removed when they set it up, if there was no preset up tent there, we would have checked the ground before setting up our own tent.

From the manager: Hi Guys Sorry about the stones, I'll look into it today. Glad you enjoyed though. Cheers for coming. Marc

Bryn Hafod - Summer on the Hill primitive forest floor tent campsite

Liked: A wonderful place to camp. Best bit was the privacy and being surrounded by nature. It's a basic site but that's great and how camping should be. Toilet was clean and shower was a luxury as was the sink and prep area. We made good use of the fire pit each evening. Even though we didn't meet the owners, they were incredibly helpful. Local area is brilliant too including the local pub.

Bryn Hafod - Summer on the Hill primitive forest floor tent campsite

Liked: Perfect, private pitch in the woods. There is 0 signal by the pitch with intermittent signal in the carpark, which was perfect for a group trying to get away from their phones! Facilities provided were exactly as expected and more than sufficient for the few nights we did. The pitch is far enough away from any neighbours to allow you some much needed peace and quiet - perfect to listen to the sounds of the forest, with the rolling river in the background. There isn't much to do in the area, but this was certainly to our advantage as we were just looking for a quiet, relaxing weekend. We will certainly be visiting again, hopefully before the end of the summer!

Liked: Prachtige plek, midden in de natuur, maar met de luxe van stromend water en een warme douche. Iedere avond genoten van een heerlijk kampvuur.

Disliked: Kleine wandeling vanaf de auto met je spullen.

Cuddfan bell tent

Liked: Absolutely beautiful spot, River was clear as glass with plenty of spots to wade, bat watching in the evening and lovely areas to spend the day in. Only a mile and a half from Crickhowell, where you can buy almost anything you may have forgotten. Hosts were great and amazingly helpful, can't wait to go again

Disliked: unfortunately when we were there the fridge had broken down as had the solar panel, hosts provided freezer blocks and recharged power banks to ensure this wasn't a big issue, and there is currently no storage, but host is addressing this. You could hear people on the footpath the other side of the river, but couldn't see anything of them due to the foliage. There is very spotty phone signal, so take a booster, and no wi-fi access at all, but then with so much to see you don't really need it.
