Time warp!

We first visited this site in 1998 when the toilet block was new, we have not been again until this week. Wow, it was like going back in time. The block though kept immaculate by the wardens does really need to be knocked down and started again. Cracked tiles, the good old little white stools and very small shower cubicles that you have to climb down to are not really acceptable when you are paying over £30 per night at this time of year. The water though was piping hot. There is no TV signal if you have an omni direction aerial, and no booster on the bollards. The club needs to spend money on this site soon. And yes the night freight trains are very loud.

Great site for walking up into the hills/mountains, very clean and great wardens

Firstly I would highlight the wardens - they are very friendly, helpful and keep the site in an immaculate condition. We stayed for a long weekend (Thu-Sun) and managed two great 13(ish) mike hikes from the site (used Day Walks in the Brecon Beacons). Walks 2 and 4 can be accessed without having to use the car and only add a mile or so onto both walks. We visited two of the pubs in the area for a drink only (my wife needs a wheat/gluten free food and both only offered "traditional" food). The Skirrid Inn was quaint and friendly with a garden at the back. The Old Pandy Inn seemed to be more of a "locals" pub. We visited both around 4.30PM after the walks so the atmosphere may be different in the evening. There is a railway line between the main road and the site which does block traffic noise but of course you do get the occasional train which is noticable but not too obtrusive. That said, we were disturbed by a couple of large freight trains that passed through in the middle of one night! So overall a nice site, we will visit again and a thank you again to the friendly wardens who work hard to maintain the site in a very neat and tidy condition!

Pretty Pandy

Site set in attractive location surrounded by hills and mountains. We did a couple of local walks from the campsite that were available from the information hut and the wardens, and took in part of Offa's Dyke. Shame there wasn't an OS map in the information hut though. Site generally quiet and peaceful but hubby found the freight trains at night disturbing. We took the campervan to Hay on Wye and were able to park ok in the large car park.

Lovely Site ! first time stay, but not the last

Beautiful Site. Fantastic welcome and stay. Was only one night. But will definitely return. Lovely walk for me and my very old Doggie. Nice level pitch . Very friendly wardens. And great Pub a stone throw away. We didn’t eat , but the food looked great. And other campers who did try the food , were all complimentary. I stuck to the local Ale, which was superb. A first class Campsite.

Pandy emic stay!

We stayed at this lovely site on the home leg of our 3/12 week tour of S. Wales. We booked it very much at the last minute and feel very lucky to have got in. It is a charming little site, peaceful and pretty in this interesting area of the Welsh boarder country. The man and wife wardens work hard maintaining the site to an excellent standard and are both friendly and welcoming. We did not find the passing trains intrusive, they’re are gone in a flash, and tranquillity restored. We continue to use our own onboard facilities and can’t therefore comment on the site facilities other than to say they appeared adequate and well maintained. Days out took us to Abergavenny, Hay-on-Wye, Monmouth and The Big Pit at Blaenafon. All very interesting and worthwhile. Won’t hesitate to visit this site again when next in that part of the world.

Coming back for a longer stay

Planned visit as a stop over on the way home from Cornwall for one night only. Wish we'd stayed longer. Must be some fantastic walking in the area so will return to enjoy that. The site was easy to find and the pitch was just fine for us. Loved hearing the trains passing and the river flowing. Very peaceful overall. Very good dog run which was off lead and our springer enjoyed a swim in the stream. The facilities were very clean when we stayed and the wardens very friendly on arrival. Nothing to complain about. We also had dinner at a pub called the Carpenters Arms and we both throughly enjoyed the meal which was home made and delicious. Overall, the site, the location and the pub dinner were just the job.

A little treasure for those looking for a quiet stay.

We loved being in this area, surrounded by lovely countryside, with plenty of quiet country lanes to walk or cycle.. The location being close to the main road and by the train lines did not interfere with our enjoyment. We hardly heard any noise during the day or night. The campsite felt safe, quiet and a pleasure to visit. We found some of the local pubs disappointing but the Wardens provided us with other options and we found a magic place to eat not too far away. We will definitely return to Pandy for our short breaks. If fact we are just going back next month before they close for the season as we liked it so much. A great find.

Friendliest staff who couldn’t do enough!

Our welcome was amazing, with fantastic wardens. They couldn’t do enough to help, and the man jumped off his lawn mower when he saw my husband waiting at reception. The shower//toilets need a little updating, and there is a bit of road noise. The train also goes past regularly, but that did not bother us! There are fantastic walks around, and we walked to the oldest pub in the UK, who served huge portions of excellent quality food. The staff there were also so friendly. We would definitely return.

Weekend away

Great wardens and a lovely site which is long and narrow, yes there are trains but didn't bother us at all. We were on the riverside which was lovely. My husband and Daughter did a walk from the site straight up a steep hill and back down the other side it was just over 3 miles long. Lots of walk info in the hut on site. We had a takeaway from the pub right by the site, which was very nice, the burgers were a bit greasy but were filled with lots of things. I had a steak which I asked for well done which it was but it was a good one not difficult to cut like others I have had from other places. We will definitely come back.
