About Cwm Wye Camping

A wonderful location to switch off. This off-grid site offers an 'almost wild' experience in the beautiful Powys countryside. A haven for wildlife, the site is just a stone's throw from the River Wye with the woodland providing a restful shaded area. There are just six non electric grass pitches onsite, each dotted around to ensure optimum peace and quiet. Each pitch allows tent and trailer tent campers only, with a maximum of six guests per pitch. Evenings can also be spent enjoying the communal fire pit, with all firewood provided. Bring your marshmallows, cook up a BBQ or simply unwind and have a chat with the other campers. This is a dog free site, and individual fire pits are not allowed. Please note, the site is a member of the Greener Camping Club so at least one of each party must be a member, but this can also be purchased when you book.

Cwm Wye Camping is open from 01/05 to 29/09.

A note from the site themselves...

We are a working sheep farm and it is important to us that we provide a great habitat for wildlife. The farm borders common land known as 'Common Coch' which provides beautiful views of the Epynt Firing range and Cambrian Mountains. We want people to come and enjoy the natural surroundings around them.

We are also proud to say we are a member of The Greener Camping Club. We look forward to welcoming you to our campsite, Tania
