Northern Hay Stables

Kedvelték Very friendly site owner/staff and we lucked out when it was quiet, they put us on a single motorhome pitch which was lovely - right next to a fire pit set up and the stables. Having the horses, chickens and pigeons right next door might not appeal to all but it was perfect for us as - although we did come away a little concerned about some dogs kept on site (it may be a mixed bag if you are an animal lover).

It's obvious that the site owners are industrious, preferring to build their own facilities / animal housing but some may find it a bit ramshackle. Generally I would say the site has a bit of a homemade sensibility about it, which I find quite charming.

Showers were clean and had good pressure, as well as being cheap.

Local walks are interesting, Newport isn't as immaculate as other parts of wales we visited but there is a nearby river and some old industrial canals which I found very interesting to visit and explore.

Nem kedvelték Other than some personal concerns about animal welfare (which may or may not be valid, we were only there one night and weren't worried enough to raise it) there's very little to complain about

Kedvelték Really friendly welcome. Very relaxed site. Plenty of room. We stayed in the stables part. Gorgeous horses that were well cared for. There was a lovely seating area with a fire pit and chiminea. We booked for 2 nights but only needed one after all. The lady on the main site was very helpful with places to walk to.

Nem kedvelték The only tiny downside is there is only one unisex toilet on the stable part with no light that we could see at night time ....... also bring your own loo roll just in case lol the showers are only in the main site but reading other reviews I think there may be plans for showers, etc at the stables

Kedvelték Nice place, friendly staff, location is ideal to break a journey.

Nem kedvelték really small minus, it is below the M4 motorway, so some road noise.

Kedvelték What a brilliant find. This little site was perfect for our visit to family in the area. The owners couldn't do enough for us, very welcoming and friendly and concerned that we had everything we needed and were happy with our pitch. Large level hardstanding pitches.Water and electricity provided, together with the key to toilet door number 6, (which locked the door from the inside when in use) and a separate shower room. Facilities were very clean. We didn't have chance to check it out this time, but there are walks to a nature reserve and countryside from the site. Location is ideal to break a journey, being 5 minutes from the M4, or for touring the Newport area.

Nem kedvelték Nothing to dislike.
It was a little confusing to find, down a very narrow lane, a sign by Crystal stables would be helpful, although Google did know that it was further down the lane.
Didn't bother us, but as other people have mentioned, it is immediately below the M4 motorway, so some road noise.

Nem kedvelték The camping field - too scrubby and weed- filled.

Kedvelték Warm welcome.

Nem kedvelték Totally unsuitable for a Motorhome site. It's right next to the M5 motorway which had busy traffic all night. We might as well have parked in a Parking lay-by on the motorway

Kedvelték This site was ideal for me as it was close to the motorway and a local train station (Pye Corner) as I was travelling into Cardiff for a concert. Colleen was really friendly and welcoming and she very kindly dropped me off to the station and gave me some 20ps for the shower. The toilet and shower were kept clean and I had my own key for the toilet. I saw a review about the shower door not locking but it's self locking and I took the key in with me while using it. There was no pressure to leave by a certain time and I will definitely return the next time I'm in Wales. Thanks Colleen, you were amazing!
