What customers say
Great family campsite in a fab spot. Comfy, roomy tents, top-notch clean facilities (even a hot tub!). Hosts are super friendly, food's delicious, and the fairy lights and animals add loads of charm. Perfect base for exploring. A few found food cabin hours tricky.

Would rush back if we visit Brecon again!
Welsh Poppy bell tent
Liked Lovely owners, very friendly and helpful. Pygmy goats, ducks and free range chickens. 20 minute walk into Brecon. Great setup - comfortable bed & bedding, open but covered outdoor kitchen, fire bowl, excellent homely toilet block, shower. THE PIZZA - honestly some of the best pizza I've had, and I've had a lot of pizza - wish we'd had it twice.
Disliked We had 2 hot showers and 3 cold ones between us - not sure if there was a knack for it but would be great to fix this or put a sign up for timings/instructions if that's the problem. The tent is right next to an access road which leads to some small businesses (and maybe a property?) - there is minimal traffic but there were one or two cars each night which woke me until I started wearing earplugs. We didn't bbq but noticed there weren't bbq implements (tongs etc).

Superb glamping experience, would definitely come again.
Foxglove bell tent (hot tub)
Liked Jo and Andrew were fabulous and made us feel very welcome and any issues were dealt with quickly.
Facilities excellent and well thought through.
Goats and chickens - kids loved spending time with them
The Greedy Goat - pizza, waffles and ice cream - yum!
Tranquility
Bell tent very comfortable and warm
Hot tub - wood fired but it did get pretty warm if you stoked it up enough.
Location - easy into Brecon itself and a great base to explore the surrounding area. Lovely views of Pen y fan
Disliked Access road to the light industrial unit next door alongside site could be noisy early mornings
Small point in that there is electricity there as charging sockets in the toilet block but there isn't hook up electrics at the tents themselves. Not a criticism but worth noting.

Welsh Poppy bell tent
Liked Warm and cozy place! All the facilities - the shower room with glass window at top, allow you to feel immerse into the nature. Every tent is spacious, the bench and table are set with or without the shelter. No matter what weather is it, you can enjoy the time there.
The kitchen set well, or barbecues with the campfire is good idea! We had a wonderful stay and definitely will back! The location is really nice - there are lots to discover. Will come next time for longer stay!
Thanks again for the host, kind and very thoughtful. Wonderful couple do shares their knowledge about the plant and the way to make campfire. Amazing!
Disliked Not at all.

Bluebell bell tent
Liked We loved the toilet & shower facilities. They were very modern & clean. We also loved how calm and inviting the stay was. We had pizza made by the owner of the site & it was fabulous. The tent was amazing & the bed was super comfy. It was really close to Brecon which was great and only 30 minutes from the four falls walk that we did too! Had such a lovely stay and would highly recommend/ will be returning!
