Brilliant Site

This site must be one of the best on the network in terms of facilities; large level pitches, two lovely shower blocks; good dog walk with dog wash (brilliant) and play areas for the children. It's such a shame that it is not open all year round!! If you like the outdoors then there is pretty much everything on the doorstep. Easy walk into Brecon along the canal for shopping (Aldi, Co-op and Morrison's) and day to day requirements. Plenty of walking from the site and a short drive gets you into the Beacons for low or high level walking and off road biking. The only down side of the site is its proximity to the main road junction (traffic noise) but if you choose your pitch carefully, then this can easily be addressed.

Very nice site

I spent 6 nights at the Brecon Beacons site in October and loved it! The site was immaculate, the pitches were spacious and the dog walking area accessible and perfect for my three Labradors. The wardens were friendly and helpful and happy to answer questions regarding places to go. There are walks to suit everyone. Steep slopes (try Pen y Fan), canal walks, the Wye valley to name but a few. I deliberately pitched away from the road which I imagine could be noisy, but I found the site very relaxing and will certainly be back.

Lovely site

We enjoyed our 3 night stay here, facilities clean, and only a short time closed for cleaning instead of 2 hours like some sites. Staff friendly & helpful, there was a shop which was closed due to be site closing for the winter, not sure why the site will be closed as its near main roads etc. Anyway will definitely stay again to meet up with our outlaws.

Really nice site, helpful and friendly wardens, lovely walks nearby

Nice, clean site with really friendly wardens. As other reviews suggest, there's some noise but not disruptive. Lovely walking on canel to Pencelli. Try the Four Falls Walk in the Brecon Beacons and get behind a waterfall - it's breath taking! Just two nights there this time but we'd go there again happily. Could/should stay open over the winter.

A wonderful relaxing break.

After reading previous reviews I must admit I became slightly worried if we had made the right decision booking this site. I'm happy to say we had an amazing 5 nights. Staff friendly and helpful. Site and showers spotless. We didn't find the road too noisy. Some road noise could be heard but did not ruin the peace and quiet. Great situated site for day visits, walks and bike rides. We will be returning.

Lovely site

Not been here before, nor read any reviews as always like to make up our on minds. It was a convenient stop over from the Cotswolds to meet with family, we stayed 3 nights and were one of the last to leave as the site closed for the winter. Lovely site, friendly, helpful wardens, facilities clean. I don't understand why the site is closing over the winter as it is mostly hardstanding and very unlikely to flood, also near the main roads too. Anyway we had an enjoyable stay.

A little more care needed

Love the area and the site is in a beautiful setting. We stayed for 5 nights and during that time noticed a few things that didn't make sense considering the large amount of money the club has invested in the site in recent years The lower toilet block had a badly leaking cistern in one cubicle. About 50 litres an hour I guess was being discharged into the toilet basin. Eight wardens on site and noting was done about it. On day three of our stay a frustrated member turned the stop valve off in the cistern and put a notice on cubicle wall to say that the ball valve needed to be replaced. All that happened was that the cubicle was closed, no repair carried out by the end of my stay! The guttering in this new block leaked badly at one point and had been doing do for some time considering the stains on the relatively newly painted external walls. Still leaking when we left The car park which had 11 visitor spaces, including 2 for disabled, has been reduced to 5 ( including the 2 disabled. The other 5 spaces have been cordoned off as used as a staff car park, despite the fact that there are plenty of other places for staff to park as well as the wardens compounds There is a ramp with wooden handrail to access the information hut. The handrail has fungus growing on it and the wood is rotting. Maybe an accident waiting to happen Why are the club letting things like this happen on such a beautiful site when all that's needed is a bit of care and attention

Great site

Have spent several days at this site in September, we read the reviews, some good and some not so good, but nothing ventured nothing gained. We loved it, the wardens were very friendly and helpful. The site was great, specially the toilet facilities, clean warm ( and piped music!) . We had very little problems with any road noise. The dog walking area was really good and safe. We walked to the The Tree Horse shoe Inn, what a view from outside the pub, amazing. The pub itself is very dog friendly, with a great atmosphere and great food. We walked to Brecon, ok you have to walk across two roads, but come on, is it a problem? The shop on site is great, get there early if you want some warm rolls or croissants, wish this amenity was available on more sites. All in all a super site that is worth a visit.

Another enjoyable visit

This was only our second visit, but the magic of the Brecon Beacons hadn't changed. The site is well kept and the staff really friendly and helpful. The redeveloped facilities are tip-top. Road noise was more noticeable this time, perhaps because of wind direction? Within easy walking distance of Brecon along the canal tow-path. This weeks "find" was the Welsh Gold Miming Centre at Dolaucothi. BEWARE OF MORRISONS FUEL STATION IN BRECON - Severe Risk of grounding cars and especially caravans and Motorhomes on exit as the forecourt slopes too steeply to the road - we damaged the rear panel of our motorhome. All the locals seem to know about it, but there are no warning signs at the fuel station.

If only

If only you could pick up this site and move it away from the adjacent roads. The site is superb and is easily the cleanest and best maintained site I have been on. The grass is maintained at a optimum height of 3.8mm at all times by the 24hr running lawn mowers. Brecon itself is really nice and accessible by foot easily via the canal. The only thing that spoils the experience is the road noise (and the mowing).I wouldn't visit again due to this.
