Must be one of the best!

Probably the best maintained site we have stay at - immaculate. Good size pitches with a good divide gave a great sense of space and privacy. The arrivals area is spacious with a good shop and most importantly helpful, friendly wardens who go the extra mile. The shower block was very modern and the best kept I think I have ever seen with the nice touch of piped radio 2 (if you like radio 2 that is!). The washing area was equally well maintained and there was also a free-to-use drying room - what a great idea. This is a great spot to stay to visit all the local attractions and I'm sure you will jot be disappointed. Only small niggle was a little road noise toward the western boundary, but nothing too intrusive.

Great Location, Friendly staff, We will be back

Brilliant site very well stocked shop does everything you'd ever need, plus hot fresh croissants for breakfast, lovely friendly staff, neat and very tidy site Quite close to the road so you get a little bit of road noise but didn't spoil our enjoyment . Wonderfull location walked up Pen Y Fan views from the top are amazing well recommended you need a good strong pair of walking shoes, plus food and drink for a picnic at the top, just park at Storeys Arms and start walking takes about one and a half to two hours to get to the top.

An ideal site for everyone

This is site is fabulous, the pitches are a very good size and the toilets and showers are spotless. The views of Pen-Y-Fan from the campsite on a clear day are spectacular. There is a dog friendly pub called the 3 horse shoes about a 10 minute walk away but remember to take a torch it's quite dark walking back with little lighting in places. If you want food there you need to book, we did not and they were to busy to fit us in. Brecon is approximately a 1.5 mile stroll down the canal which is lovely and there are plenty of pubs in Brecon as well as coffee shops and places to eat. Very friendly wardens. We stayed in March so the site was quiet and very relaxing, although I have stayed on a bank holiday and even though busy it is still a great place to relax.

Hope to return

Great site. Nice and open with large pitches and lovely views of the mountains from most. Two excellent warm toilet blocks which were very clean. Helpful friendly team of wardens and an excellent large shop. First I have seen on a club site. If calling in for a couple of days you could buy everything you needed and not leave the site. Good location for exploring the Brecons. Only downside is that there is some traffic noise but you are warned of this. Wouldn't put me off returning which I hope to do as two nights wasn't enough.

First visit to Brecon Beacons site and certainly not our last

A very well laid out site with large pitches and excellent facilities which are kept in spotless condition. Lovely staff on site who are courteous, helpful and a mine of useful information. There is a well stocked shop on site with all those essentials. The local pub is within walking distance via the dog walk - lovely ales, very good food and lovely staff (book in advance as the pub was busy when we called at 6.30pm) There were wonderful views, from our caravan, of the Brecon Beacons (mountains) which were lightly dusted with snow. There are lots of interesting places to visit within a half an hour drive: Hay on Wye a great place to wander around. Lots of wildlife with buzzards and red kites hovering overhead. The first morning on site we rose to find a large ball made up of twigs and moss in our tow hitch cover: this was removed and was thought to have built up during winter storage of our van. The following morning a large ball of twigs had once again appeared inside the cover and as I looked inside a robin appeared with a mouth full of twigs: wonderful and I have the photos to prove it. Night skies are incredible as light pollution is low: the walk back from the pub in almost pitch darkness (take a torch) was a pleasure as we tried to identify some of the major constellations. We had a pitch alongside our friend's caravan ' and they have a dog (Brinkley) - importantly the site is very doggy friendly (as is the pub)

Excellent site

As part of a visit to Wales we spent a few days here in March. What a lovely site and well within a gentle stroll of Brecon along the canal. The facilities are immaculate and very clean. The dog walk is lovely and there is a good pub not far away.

Opening Times !!

Why oh why isn't this site open? This review is based, unfortunately, upon not being able to stay! The facilities are quite obviously excellent, as evidenced by members high ratings generally BUT we are in total agreement with many other members regarding the winter closing. Such an opportunity missed by the C.C. Heated facilities, site is almost in the town and all other sites in the area are closed. I wonder if there is any intention to amend the opening times to meet the desires of members? Do we know if those that are paid to run our club for us actually read and take notice of these comments?

Our new favourite place

Only recently discovered this gem of a site but have visited several times since. Wardens are always helpful and friendly, pitches spacious and well positioned. Both toilet blocks immaculately clean and warm and well equipped. Perfect! I realise that the wardens need a break but it's a pity that the site closes from the end of October to March. The Brecon Beacons can be beautiful in winter and the site seems ideally equipped to cope with wintery weather with its hard standings and heated toilet blocks. In fact, it would be fairly easy to have only one half of the site open, and only one block in use. Looking forward to returning in spring!
