Liked: This is a great all rounder you have a more quiet backpacking field to pitch on after pen Y Fan - you also have a more lively family field if you was taking the children along. They also have got many farm animals that they are happy for the kids to go see.

Liked: We had a lovely stay with our two young boys and dog. Paula was extremely helpful and would drive around checking everyone throughout the day and evening. The toilets and showers were kept clean and tidy. Everyone was really friendly and plenty of people who regularly stayed on the farm. Perfect location. For a long weekend it was ace and would definitely return.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Location was perfect. 10 min drive to supermarket, 10 min drive to Pen-Y-Fan walking route, or a path from the site, close to other options as well. (Waterfall walk, black mountains, caves. The facilities were clean, tidy and modern. The camp fields were equipped with picnic tables and had a nice river alongside, which gave it a wild feel. Was nice to listen to while settling down for the night.
The owners were very friendly and accommodating and always reachable when needed or wanting to ask something. I’ve been too quite a few campsites over the last few years, and always thought I’d found the best, now this one has taken the crown. Can’t fault it at all. Will be back for certain. WiFi was powerful too!
Disliked: Nothing to dislike

Liked: Very friendly welcome and informative of where everything was. The location is great, very quick drive or; what we did, a nice half hour walk by the waterfall into Brecon. The goats and the donkeys are very sweet and it's fun being on a working farm. The facilities were very nice, very clean and well maintained. The Wi-Fi and phone signal was also excellent and no problem with connection.
Disliked: The only complaints were that where we were on the electric plug in site, it did feel a little close next to the other vans and motor homes. But thankfully our neighbours were quiet so it wasn't an issue. And the other thing was that where we were only there for a night and was a shame the shop at reception was shut in the morning as we wanted some eggs.
