Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: What a great find I most definitely will go back. We went in June sadly it was just a one night stop off on a longer journey, I was very tempted to stay longer but needed to get going. We were in a camper on hook up, loads of room only a few pitches. The toilets and showers very clean, the showers were fab, each cubical has its own sink and plenty of room. It's a quiet site no annoying club house or any disturbances, wonderful. Bit of a walk into town for shopping if like us once you park up thats it everything else is on foot or public transport so you need a bit of forward planning but its worth the trouble.
Disliked: The water in the showers wasn't very hot, warm enough but not hot hot.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: My second time visiting this camp site, I will 100% be visiting again and recommending to family and friends!
The facilities are brilliant as well as kept clean and tidy! There is everything you need to make your experience comfortable. The owners are also so friendly and accomodating if you need any help. The farm animals are also an added bonus which would be great if travelling with young kids. Location is brilliant with easy access to everywhere. Signal and WIFi both good too. Loved that there is plenty of picnic tables.

Our second visit. Small, comfortable, and friendly site.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Small site, friendly owners, lovely views, and farm animals. Shower and loo facilities are good and the small kitchen area is perfectly acceptable. The ground is good for pitching tents and loads of space is given.
Extremely beautiful walks are accessed directly from the site. Brecon itself has a couple of decent real ale pubs and some nice places to eat.
Disliked: Proximity to the road may be an issue for some.
