About Highlands Holidays Monmouth
A peaceful break on a Welsh smallholding is the order of the day here as you'll stay in idyllic surroundings, with views across the valley. Pitches are almost all on grass, on a gentle slope, sheltered by a line of trees, with electric also available. These are available for tents, campervans and motorhomes alike. There is also one level hardstanding electric pitch available. Hidden away in the apple orchard, the hand-crafted Orchard Wagon offers a cosy glamping break for those looking for a few home comforts. Inside there's a toasty wood burner, large bed, decorations and electric. Get back to nature with miles of forest and riverside walks from the door of this site. At night, sit around the campfire listening to the owls hooting. It is the perfect hidden escape! If a basic campsite with boundless nature, dark skies and crackling campfires are your thing, then this is the site for you. Please note, access to the site is via a narrow lane.
Hardstanding pitches are available from February and grass pitches are available from March. Glamping is available all year round.
Basic site facilities include a water tap, cold water washing up area, and a trailer with two simple hot showers and two flush toilets.
Several charming country pubs are walkable in under an hour, or a ten minute drive, including Michelin-starred restaurant The Whitebrook, The Lion at Trellech, The Bell at Redbrook and The Bush and The Boat at Penallt.

A beautiful setting with good walks close by but we felt facilities were poor. Broken toilet seat, loose taps, shower area dirty, washing up station at such an angle that items placed on draining board slid back into the bowl. No minimum distance between pitches so we were somewhat hemmed in by our neighbours. A shame as this is a beautiful location. Will try again in future, maybe this was end of season blues.
Site's response
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. I am glad to hear you liked our beautiful area. I am sorry to hear you were disappointed by the facilities. Our facilities are indeed very basic - this is a back-to-nature campsite. Despite being basic, we do take great efforts to keep the facilities clean, so I am sorry that you found the cleanliness not up to standard. I can only assume that you caught the facilities after some heavy usage before we had come and done our daily clean. I do hope you come again to enjoy our simple site and stunning rural area.
Great experience

Great little, quiet spot in the Wye Valley. Good location for day trips out. Campsite has decent, warm showers, wash up area etc. Basic but very adequate.

Lovely campsite in a beautiful location. We enjoyed being able to go for beautiful woodland walks from the campsite, and drove the short distance into Mo mouth to go on a canoe trip down the beautiful River Wye. We will definitely be coming back again.
