Panpwnton Farm

Liked The campsite is in a really pretty location with lovely walks nearby, which was definitely a positive. Check-in and check-out were also very relaxed and easy, with just a simple phone call and being told to pitch up wherever we liked, which made arrival stress-free.

Disliked We ended up staying on the back field where the grass was very long. I personally feel campsite grass should be kept shorter and better maintained.

The toilet and shower block was also disappointing. The toilets and showers were all in the same building, with a ladies’ cubicle next to a shared cubicle, then another cubicle for men. I really didn’t like this setup and wouldn’t have booked if I had known I could be using the toilet right next to a man.

In the morning, one of the toilets was left in a really unpleasant state with what looked like a poo explosion everywhere. It was not nice at all and made me feel uncomfortable using the facilities again, so I didn’t use the showers at all.

There were also multiple dogs off lead running around the field. We had brought our own dog, who doesn’t get on well with dogs off lead, so this caused stress for us throughout the stay.

Because of the long grass, unclean toilet facilities, and dogs being off lead, I personally wouldn’t stay again.

From the manager: Hello Jade. Sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy your stay. May I just add - you picked where you wanted to pitch, there are many areas that are mowed grass which were available to pitch on.
The toilets are checked and cleaned every couple of hours. Sorry you had an unfortunate find. I cannot check after every person uses the loo. Nobody’s ever complained of the ‘set up’ before as you can see in all our previous reviews.

Liked Spacious pitch, friendly owners, Beautful site, kids loved the stream we pitched up next to and the area itself is wonderful. There’s a platform with the English/Welsh boarder the kids can stand on only a 5 minute stroll up river. We spent most of the day skimming rocks and the kids were able to just be kids with no electronics and it was heartwarming to see. The toilets and showers are decent. There’s fridge/ freezer for all to use and a kettle. This is the second time we have been and there were a few upgrades such as a little cafe serving baps and treats for dogs! Knighton itself is a lovely little town with everything you need and just by the offas dyke path is a huge park. There’s plenty around this site to keep you busy without needing to use the car. You can hire the fire pit £5 a night and purchase a bucket of logs for £5. Dogs are very welcome and catered for. If you follow the river it’ll take you to Knighton perhaps 20 minutes walking. You can join the offas dyke path along the way. Plenty of areas the kids can play in the stream.

Disliked This is nothing to do with the site or the owners. It’s to do with people and 2 families turned up at 9:30pm and starting setting up their tents and were still doing so until midnight right next to our tent. I mean who on earth turns up in the dark and starts setting up their tents! They were very loud and this just sullied the evening after having such a perfect day. This is more to do with people which I know you cannot predict/control it’s just not what you expect of other campers.

Liked Lovely site well spaced out, facilities was great. We was greeted by a wonderful lady whi was very helpful. The showers and toilets was spotlessly clean, aswell as the communal kitchen area where there was a fridge kettle and microwave to use if needed. Theres lots of walks and the surrounding scenery was beautiful.

Liked Loved how relaxed the whole site is, makes such a difference to your mindset when you can arrive when you like and leave when you like - no need to set an alarm on your last day.
The site itself is stunning, pitch where you like. Owners are wonderfully friendly and welcoming, as was pretty much everyone we met there. Lovely walks from the site into town or over the hills. Pitched right next to the river and fell asleep listening to the gentle babbling of water. Left here feeling like we had been on a full meditation weekend. Perfect!

Disliked Not booking for longer!
