Small Tent - Bryn Hafod Bell TentJun 2024

The camping that we love. Completely private, wild-style camping but with luxury of own toilet and hot shower and an outdoor sheltered kitchen. The extras make a huge difference to camping in a small tent. Lots of lovely scenery and walks and a short drive to Crickhowell if you fancy a bit of civilization. Beautiful river near camp. The Llangenny pub wasn't open when we stayed. Our host was helpful and available by WhatsApp but left us to enjoy and relax. We shall come back! If you go, be sure to pack extra warm clothes as the forest is quite cool, lots of camp fires required!

Fantastic secluded site in a beautiful location

Small Tent - Bryn Hafod Bell TentMay 2024

This is a beautiful spot, very secluded with a small river nearby which you can hear to lull you to sleep! There is a dedicated fire pit, sink/covered area, as well as toilet and a shower. The site has parking at the main entrance gate, so you need to walk 2 mins down/up a hill to access the pitch - just something to keep in mind if you're like us and don't seem to be able to pack light! It is so peaceful, gorgeous with all the bluebells, no phone signal - and just a short distance to Crickhowell and 15 minutes to Abergavenny if you do want to see nearby towns or otherwise get supplies. Marc is very helpful and thoughtful, great communication. I strongly recommend this beautiful site and will happily return!
