About the site


This organic farm sits on two acres of wildflower meadow with 15 pitches and stunning views of two valleys. The site also boasts 12 acres leading down to both banks of the River Marlais, allowing guests to light a fire, listen to the soothing sounds of the water, or take a refreshing dip in one of the deeper pools. For those looking to explore the area, the farm is conveniently located just a half-hour drive from Brechfa Forest and Bannau Brycheiniog (the Brecon Beacons National Park).

A note from the site themselves...

When we set up Glynmarch Farm Camping our aim was to offer the kind of campsite that we ourselves would want to stay at, having been both wild camping as well as staying on campsites for over 40 years.

The reaction since we opened in 2019 has been amazing, and it's wonderful for us to be able to share Glynmarch Farm with people who enjoy a taste of wild Wales with all that this locality has to offer, and at the same time, enjoy just a few creature comforts.

Watch the majestic Red Kites circle over the farmyard and our resident swallows perform their stunning aerobatics. Fall asleep to the soothing sounds of sheep and wake up to their gentle bleats in the morning.

Take a stroll down to the river and enjoy the peaceful sound of babbling water over the rocks, cook up a delicious breakfast over an open fire and take a dip in one of our pools. It's the perfect way to start your day surrounded by the beauty of nature.

Come and experience it for yourself at our farm!

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

What a surprise! This just happened to be the campsite in the area that we wanted to stay, but it turned out to be one of the best camp sites I have visited in Wales. It was in a lovely quiet location and was well looked after, the owners were very friendly and helpful. This is definitely a campsite I will stay at again when I travel back to Wales.

Excellent facilities. Remote location filled with nature. Great walks. Bring food as there is no shop in Llansawel Village.

Great stay
