Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2024

Amazing owners, great value for money as comes with showers and shared cooking equipment. Quiet area with a great view but close enough for only a 10 minute drive to the town. Really recommend this site for any sized campers.

Cute and cosy

Bell Tent - 5m Bell TentAug 2024

The bell tent was really cosy. It had fairy lights and a tiny wood burner to keep us warm. The site has dogs and they were really friendly too, we played fetch with them for a bit. The location was outside of Brecon so you do need to drive to get in and out but it was only a 25 minute-ish drive from the walk for Pen-y-fan and less than that to the town. We didn't use the showers but there is a sink and outdoor kitchen provided so perfect for making a cup of tea in the morning.

Wonderful site

Bell Tent - 5m Bell TentJul 2024

We had a wonderful stay at Caecrwn Retreat. The bell tent was beautifully set up and had everything we needed for a lovely stay. The site is stunning and quiet, but close to Brecon and local amenities.
