  • Dog-friendly Powys site close to the banks of the River Wye
  • A 45-minute walk from Hay-on-Wye, with canoe hire available nearby
  • Pebble beaches where guests can set up a firepit or barbecue
A location close to the banks of the River Wye is a good start for Digeddi Wildlife Camping… Then add to that gorgeous river views, well-spaced pitches and pebble beaches where guests can watch the sunset, and you’ve got the recipe for quite the scrumptious stay. Also rather appetising is the fact that Digeddi Wildlife Camping is only a 45-minute walk from Hay-on-Wye, a town famed for its bookshops. There are canoe hire companies within five minutes’ drive of the site who will gladly organise a day’s river tour, ending at a pub for a pint and a snack in typical British fashion too. Whether you’re on a solo jaunt or on a family get-together, feel free to launch any water crafts from the designated point on site instead if you like. If the mountains are calling your name instead and pony trekking sounds like an ace way to experience them, just ask for the details at reception. As a family-run site, all of the team have a hand in maintenance, cleaning and welcoming guests (and they all have heads full of useful information too). The guests’ wellbeing is always at the front of their minds, of course. When it comes to practical matters, there are hot showers housed in a horse trailer on site and shops, pubs, cafés, restaurants, a supermarket, a cinema and a post office in Hay-on-Wye.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Beautiful views, lovely town down the road.

Disliked Very rude owner, the entrance of the campsite near reception is very unsightly, lots of rubbish everywhere. The showers are awful, don’t stay warm and have no water pressure. The campsite is not as pictured, although we loved the river, it’s very overgrown and not as accessible as advertised. The owner takes you to your pitch and is rude when you ask to change pitch. The toilets smell very strong of cheap perfume. There are troffs of stagnant water on the campsite which attracts lots of flies. There were 2 people on very loud motorbikes on the campsite for hours at a time and lots of dogs not on a lead which was problematic for us as we have a nervous puppy. Could be a beautiful campsite if looked after properly. Very expensive for what you get.

From the manager: So Pleased you liked the location at least we did something right for you !!!!!
I genuinely thought you liked the pitch I put you on ! Shame you left your tent pegs behind and I let you have some of mine !!! But I am RUDE !!
I take it you prefer the smell of Porto Loo or --- !!! ,than an air freshener to make your loo visit more enjoyable, we do try keep everything clean but you can't please all the people all the time !! Sorry about loose dogs , if you don't tell me this is happening I can't control the situation and I am sorry for that as it clearly states all dogs kept on leads at all times !! Very upset about you thinking my American barn is rubbish , my horses don't think so .
The Bikes its my land and my boys can ride their bikes on my land about 1/2 a mile away from any pitches, but the deal is they are not out more than 20 mins !! I can not control the bike track 1 mile away !!!
Showers your the very first person to complain about the showers so water of a ducks back lovely !!!!!Think my dear you need to go stay at Butlins it would suit you much better and I am rather pleased you won't recommend me and won't come back thats a relief !!!!! Adios Amigo !!! PS you spell Troff Trough !!!!! All The Best Sue-zi

Would come again- a good site with clean facilities on the whole.

Bow Top gypsy wagon

Liked Mainly helpful staff
Beautiful views and sunrises and sets
Bow top caravan a novelty
Kingfishers , Dippers and other beautiful birds down by the river.
Nearby countryside eg. Arthur’s Stone.

Disliked Too many dogs off leads (not the campsite’s fault)- we didn’t want to say hello
Proximity of other pitches with no hedge
Children being noisy late at night (not the campsite’s fault)
Long walks to toilets (maybe more paths through long grass could be made, eg by shepherds hut )
Initial impression seemed scruffy (though this improved once we had settled in)

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Quiet and peaceful by the river, campsite was spaced out really well to give everyone privacy. Owners were super lovely, helped me out when I forgot my tent pegs! Shower was hot and the main toilets next to them were well maintained.

Disliked Difficult to get to on foot from Hay-on-Wye, and the river pitches especially have a long walk to access water, showers/main toilets, or the washing up sink. There's also no ability to throw away rubbish at the site, you have to take it with you.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Excellent location of our pitch in shade right next to the river for dips and dog paddles.
Cute loo and showers in horse boxes.
Friendly owner.
Remote enough from Hay to feel in the wild however near enough for a long walk in to Hay. We will be returning.

Local attractions

Whether you’re a hiker or biker, there should be a trail you fancy somewhere in the local area. Biking trails are plentiful upon Hay Bluff (15 minutes’ drive), or over at The Begwns (20 minutes), which has stunning views over the Brecon Beacons. The Black Mountains (around 20 minutes) are, of course, packed with trails of all sorts, but if you’re looking to cross off the famed Brecon Beacons walk of Pen y Fan (half an hour), it’s pretty easy to reach the big peak too. Activities-wise, you’re by no means limited to hiking and biking. Gorge walking, clay pigeon shooting, archery, caving, climbing and go-karting can be booked with the activity centre five minutes’ drive away. Throw some rowing, windsurfing or paddleboarding into the mix too. Any of these makes an excellent way to experience Llangorse Lake (20 minutes), a glacial lake that has the only crannog (artificial inhabited island) in Wales and England.
