Riding centre on site at cantref adventure farm

Set in rural Wales with spectacular views of the Brecon Beacons
A 15-minute drive from outdoor activity centres in Brecon
Free entry to a farm park for the duration of the stay; café on site

Farmyard fun is the firm order of the day at Cantref Campsite, a family-friendly place three miles from Brecon town centre and surrounded by the spectacular scenery of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Stay here and you’ll not just get to meet the friendly animals: guests are permitted to access the kids' farm park next-door for the duration of their stay, from their arrival day to departure day. At the farm park, shows and workshops run every half-hour throughout the day, with antics including pet handling, bottle feeding lambs, tractor and trailer rides and madcap pig races. Now, it does occasionally rain in Wales, so the clever farm folk have installed a pleasingly spacious and heated indoor play area at the farm park in case the outdoor rides are too damp. Got a particular soft spot for the horses? You’re in the right place – the site’s also got a horse riding and pony trekking centre, catering for all abilities from baffled beginner to experienced horse handlers. For eats, Cantref Campsite's farmhouse café serves light lunchtime snacks, cakes and homemade specials and there are a couple of country pubs within a 10-minute drive.

Electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Clean facilities, friendly staff. Lovely setting, nice and quiet with good access to the Brecon Becons. The pitches were a good size and the hook up was great.

Disliked A bit of a walk to the wash rooms! It wasn’t a big issue though, but could have been if the weather had been unkind!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked I'm travelling with my 13 years old and 9 years old daughters. I booked the campsite and also booked the animal experience VIP during the weekend. The campsite and facilities are clean and quiet. The adventure farm and staff are really friendly and I got to know everyone. Will definitely come back here again.

May 2025 Bart B.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked It's a quiet and dark site with lovely scenery. The ground is very hard, so make sure you bring some heavy-duty tent pegs. Entrance to the adventure farm is included in the price.

Disliked Didn't get wifi on our pitch. Toilet blocks are 10m above tent pitches, so there's lots of climbing :D

Electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Really spacious tent pitch (no 17).
The staff were super friendly and helpful.
Having free admission to the farm park with your booking it's a massive bonus it was great for our children aged 7 & 3. We also took a dog which we were able to take in aswel.
There is a river 5 mins walk from the campsite which you can walk along and is stunning.

Local attractions

Views out over the surrounding mountains and valleys will no doubt tip you off that there are plenty of options for mountain biking and hill walking nearby. Several biking and hiking routes start near the site, with heaps more around the rest of the Brecon Beacons National Park (including five mountain bike centres and 14 trails ranging from beginner to expert). If you’re up for other outdoorsy activities, activity centres in Brecon (15 minutes’ drive) can hook you up with days of canoeing, caving, climbing and sailing. For a real challenge, get set to scale Pen y Fan – south Wales’s highest peak is 20 minutes away (handily, the easiest route up is also the most convenient here – no need to let on to the folk back home.) For something a little gentler, take your binoculars to Craig Cerrig-Gleisiad or Talybont Reservoir (both about 20 minutes) for some excellent birdwatching, or crack on to Crickhowell Castle (25 minutes).
