Perched on a gentle hillside near the village of Brecon, the site offers uninterrupted views of the Pen y Fan ridge. You won’t find manicured lawns or sterile rows here—instead, it’s a natural, grassy layout with generous pitches that respect your privacy. The air smells of damp earth and wild garlic, and the only traffic noise comes from the occasional buzz of a bee heading to the heather.
It’s part of the Caravan and Motorhome Club network, which means consistent quality, but this site has a personality all its own. The facilities block is spotless (think warm showers and proper flush loos), and there’s a small shop for essentials. But the real star is the location: you’re literally a five-minute stroll from the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal, where you can watch narrowboats drift by like floating cottages.
Practical Tips for the Savvy Traveller
Book early, especially from May to September—this place is a secret that locals have known for years. Pitches are on a first-come, first-served basis for electric hook-ups, so arriving by midday on a Friday is your best bet. Pro tip: bring a levelling ramp, because the site is beautifully undulating, and your kettle will thank you.
If you’re in a motorhome, the access road is single-track in places, so take it slow and enjoy the hedgerow scenery. The friendly wardens will greet you with a map and a smile, and they’re full of local knowledge—like which pub in Brecon has the best Sunday roast (hint: try The George Hotel).
