A delightful little site

This is a delightful little site. Lying a few miles north of Abergavenny it is surrounded by hills and bordered by a most attractive river (the Monnow which apparently eventually ends up in Monmouth, hence the name) running close by. This river also runs through the dog walk area - our Labradors loved it! The railway line runs on an embankment high above the site and the trains pass at speed at regular intervals - we got used to their sudden presence very quickly, and they didn't disturb our nights. The staff are delightful; friendly and helpful - good ambassadors for the Club. Despite the drizzle we managed to get out for a good circular walk following part of the Beacon Trail - when the mist and low clouds parted the views were wonderful - in fine weather it must be spectacular. Beware though - despite this being a National Park, most of the stiles are not dog friendly, and we found that heaving muddy, wet Labradors over the stiles because there was no access for them took the edge off the experience. But if you are looking for a friendly, small and well cared for site in lovely surroundings then Pandy fits the bill very well. I have a feeling that we'll be back.

Very peaceful

We stayed here for a weekend, we didn't want to go far from home but needed a break.  A beautiful peaceful site with nothing around..perfect!! We had our children with us who thoroughly enjoyed having the stream to themselves which is just off the site.  Nothing else in the location for children, so I would say a peaceful site for adults.... lovely!!!

Intimate site; pubs a plenty

Stayed for five days and found this to be a great base, with lots of good walking and cycling, and lovely pubs nearby. Highly recommend The Carpenters Arms, just over a mile away up a country lane, it's setting is quite idyllic, with good views to enjoy from a few benches and tables at the front. Homely place to enjoy good pub food and warm hospitality. Also try the Hunters Moon - we walked the Offa's Dyke Trail from the site - 3.8 miles - to get there, otherwise accessed by narrow lanes. Both pubs were dog friendly. The wardens shop doesn't stock a great deal (no newspapers), the nearest place is a couple of miles drive. Dog owners note warning sign in dog walk about Adders - though I understand none sighted for years.

Fab relaxing place

Just returned from Pandy.  Thanks to the wardens for all their help BTW we're had the old motorhome that decided to die a slow death, but we got home in one piece :) Site and facilites very clean. Wardens were friendly, helpful and full of smiles, again thx. Weather great which meant we were able to have a long walk on the Saturday. The Old Pandy Inn which is run by Alan served lovely food in the evening, my husband and I would recommend the Pheasant pie and the stew - yummy. Not sure its suitable for young children. We'll be back. :)

Lovely little site

Warm welcome  at this busy site and when we arrived there was very little choice but nevertheless found a good spot. Facilities spotless. Excellent dog walk on site down by the stream with loads of wild flowers as well as  a walk across the road. Took the bus into Abergavenney (£5.10 return and £1 each way for each dog). The Ship Inn en route from the bus station allows dogs inside and we had a coffee and bacon sandwich there - others having a full breakfast at a reasonable price). Impressive castle ruins and a small museum (donations) - it said no dogs so we took it in turns to sit outside on one of the benches near the entrance to the grounds. Pleasant little place to walk round with an indoor market. Had lunch at The Angel which allows dogs inside and in the courtyard - shared the Foxhunter platter which was actually an excellent selection of Spanish deli. Provided fresh water for the dogs. Friday evening went to the local pub, the Old Pandy Inn, where dogs are allowed in the snug/bar. On recommendation from a local I had the pheasant pie which was superb.

relaxing stay

Had a great stay at this site over the Easter bank holiday weekend, the site was so quiet and peaceful. Our pitch had a lovely view over the stream and hills and although you can hear the trains they didn't bother us at all. Great location for Abergavenny and walking in the hills . Facilities spotlessly clean and wardens really friendly. Will return soon .

WELL WORTH A VISIT

Spent a week here in the middle of April 2015 with my wife and boys. The location is fantastic and made more so by the wonderful sunny weather. Ideally situated for touring the Brecons and surrounding areas. Despite our chosen pitch backing on to the railway one soon gets used to it and we waved to all the trains passing by. Great toilets and showers and the views up to the hills from our pitch were lovely. There is a dog walking area and a field for the kids to play football including a small goal. Staff very friendly too. Would certainly recommend this site.

We would recommend it to our friends...

What a lovely site; we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely use it again.  It is quiet; very well maintained and high quality; it’s a good base to explore Brecon; and it is a very safe place as a family location.  There are trains…but being realistic…it’s next to a railway line! And we stayed right next to it…  We heard them, but of little concern really.  The local inn is good food in walking distance, but perhaps avoid the 1830 hours rush.  The Skirrid Inn up the road is very nice as well.  Lovely place, thank you.

Peaceful and spacious

Pretty site, helpful wardens. Well kept and very quiet apart from occasional trains which woke me the first night but didn't bother us after that. We stayed 3 nights, "breaking in" a new van so didn't go out much. Local pub had good food and beer. For a while our granddaughter was the only child on site so was a bit lonely!
