  • Shropshire farm site on the Offa's Dyke Path and by the River Teme
  • A 10-minute drive to the Spaceguard Centre; 40 minutes to Elan Valley
  • Stroll along the riverbank to Knighton in 20 minutes
Just next to the Offa’s Dyke Path and on the banks of the River Teme, Panpwnton Farm is about as close to Wales as it’s possible to be without actually being in Wales (although as the border’s just a couple of hundred metres away you can easily flit between the two nations as you wish…) That location makes this a prime pick for anyone making their way along the entirety of the Offa’s Dyke Path – but there’s plenty of walking (and cycling too) to be done nearby for folk who aren’t up for such long-distance ventures. The farm is in the southern stretches of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (10 minutes' drive from Llanfair Waterdine), where lots of scenic trails await, and you can also try out shorter stretches of Glyndwr’s Way, another major trail on the Welsh side of the border. There’s pretty rural scenery all around the farm, but you’ll not be stranded miles from civilisation – in fact it’s only about a mile to the small town of Knighton for pubs, eateries, shops and a railway station. You can drive down there in five minutes or so, but the favoured way to travel is to stroll along the riverbank for 20 minutes. Barbecues are permitted on site, so stock up on goodies for the grill while you’re in town. A washing-up area is on hand for cleaning up afterwards, and there are hot showers to help you do the same for yourself. There’s no wifi on site, but most guests get decent phone signal, and there are charging facilities to make sure you’ve got plenty of juice to plan your adventures.

What customers say

Peaceful riverside spot with stunning views, direct Offa's Dyke access. Friendly owners, top-notch facilities. Short walk to Knighton. Fridge/microwave a bonus. Slight train noise, but mostly unobtrusive. Guests keen to return.

Unpowered grass motorhome site

Liked On arrival I went to the reception at the house and was welcomed by a lovely lady, she told us to have a drive around and pick wherever we’d like to setup camp.
A very peaceful and idyllic site with the river trickling through, we we’re surrounded by sheep in adjacent fields, even had 2 join us in the camping field.
Have been looking for a relaxed get away with good walks that is only an hr from home, and I think we have found it! We will definitely be going back.

Unpowered grass motorhome site

Liked Lovely site and excellent facilities including a great little cafe.
The addition of a communal fridge and microwave was very helpful.
The pitch was large and it wasn’t too busy. Great location for walking into Knighton town or for walking, including Offas Dyke.

Liked Straightforward easiness of the place, beautiful peaceful spot. Use of fridge and thoughtfulness of electrical kettle for those who need it (I didn’t on this occasion). Ultra clean showers. All for reasonable price, like campsites used to be!

Local attractions

As you’ll probably be skipping about either side of Offa’s Dyke, it makes sense to start your trip with a visit to the Offa’s Dyke centre (five minutes’ drive) to find out about the ancient landmark. For other walking trails, head to the Elan Valley or Carding Mill Valley and the Long Mynd (both 40 minutes). For a closer look at the natural world, plan trips to the Small Breeds Farm Park and Owl Centre (25 minutes) or stop by at the Red Kite Feeding Station (40 minutes) to see these splendid beasts in flight. The Spaceguard Centre observatory (10 minutes) is also worth a visit if you’d like to find out more about the skies overhead. Castle outings are part of the landscape for trips here too – perhaps to the impressive 13th-century fortifications of Stokesay Castle (half an hour) or the art-filled rooms and colourful gardens of Powis Castle and Garden (50 minutes). If you’d rather skip straight to the garden strolls, try Hergest Croft Gardens (25 minutes).
