About the site


Glanusk Caravan Park is in a secluded part of the estate and perfectly private. The views of the unmissable Black Mountains make this a very special place to stay. Even at night, the sky lights up with twinkly stars and puts on a show, thanks to your location within the International Dark Sky Reserve. Relax on all weather pitches with the option of electric, in an area that's surrounded by nature. The park reaches out towards the river's banks, where the peaceful waters are ideal for salmon and trout fishing. Steeped in history, the estate is a beautiful space which began life as a retreat for Sir Joseph Bailey and family. It features a stretch of the tranquil River Usk, a host of majestic trees, wide meadows and secretive walled gardens. A distinctive tower and bridge add the perfect finishing touch to these surroundings. It's known as The Jewel in the Usk Valley and this luxurious setting sees more than 200 species of oak and a huge variety of charming flowers, plant life and wildlife. Dogs are welcome to join you.
