Reviewer: Peter Downey 1 review from this member

 Great well looked after site with very clean washrooms. The site has nice views out over fields and the Black Mountains. There are only 16 pitches and 3 static caravans and no shop so come prepared as the nearest shops are in Hay.

The pitches are reasonably level and the owner is usually on site to lend a helping hand and offer advice and information on the surrounding area.

Only a 40 minute walk from Hay-on-Wye along the Offas Dyke Path and a shortish (20 mins)walk from the Baskerville Arms which sells reasonably priced good pub food and nice beer.

 We visited Site last year on passing just to take a quick inspection, and said we would return. We Did, and are so glad that we did.

The Site is fairly small with impeccable pitches, neatly mowed by James. Each pitch has access to Water and T. V hook-up (Sky Sat socket also ! bring your sky box !)

As already stated, Toilets and showers are very high standard, 2 Toilets and Two Showers in each. Also a disabled / Family toilet and Shower room if required.

James and his wife are very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable of local area. Always there if needed.

If we go to Hay on Wye again, we will definitely stay here.

 This was the second year that we had spent the Hay Festival week at this campsite. It is well run by the owner and his wife. He is always around to help users and ensure that the facilities are up to scratch. The ablutions block is modern, well designed and kept spotless. There is plenty of hot water for the showers and the washing up sinks.

The view over the Wye Valley is spectacular and access to the site is easy from the main Brecon to Hereford Road.

There is good on-site dog walking in two large fields adjoining the camp site itself.

 Great stay at very short notice. James who runs the place really goes the extra mile and cares about his customers. It was the busiest weekend of the year (during the Hay Festival) but instead of turning us away, he made such an effort to find space for us.

It's a lovely small site, with excellent loos and showers (free) and great views. Just a mile and a half from Hay centre. Small field for a children's play area, and another field for dog walking. Some hardstanding pitches, some on grass.

Plenty of water points. I really appreciated the quietness of such a small site. We will definitely be returning next year.

Reviewer: Tibbs69 2 reviews from this member

 We visited this site over the Easter bank holiday weekend. We were greeted by the owner who showed us where to pitch and was then extremely helpful when we had problems trying to get our caravan level. He was always around if you needed him for anything but in no way intrusive.

It's a small campsite, very clean and tidy with spotless showers and loos. Even though it was fully booked we didn't have to wait for a shower and there was always hot water.

The pitches are of an adequate size but we were right in the middle and I did feel a little exposed with caravans all around us. I think that some hedging between between the pitches would be an improvement as you can see straight into your neighbours van and vice versa.

There is a field for children to play in so plenty of space for them. However whilst we were there, for an hour or so in the evenings, there were several boys who kept riding their bikes round and round the site as if it were a race track! This was a bit annoying as they could have easily knocked you over if you had happened to have come out of the toilet block at an inopportune moment. But they did stop though once it got dark and then it was very quiet.

Even though this site is situated next to quite a busy main road I can't say we noticed any noise from it and you can enjoy some lovely views of the black mountains which were snow capped when we were there.

Hay on wye is a quaint little old town with lots of lovely galleries, antique shops and coffee shops. And of course is well known for being a book lovers paradise as there are many book shops.

You can reach it on foot in about an hour by taking a lovely walk through some fields and along the river bank. Just make sure you stick to the footpath as we got told off by a farmer for trying to take a short cut across his land! I think this must happen quite often as he was there as quick as a flash! We also rode in on our bikes going via some quiet country lanes.

In summary this is a small, well kept site with friendly helpful owners. It's probably very peaceful during school term time and is very reasonably priced. If you're visiting this neck of the woods I would recommend this campsite as a great base for exploring the surrounding area.

 Have stayed here several times and never been disappointed. A small site but all the better for that! Facilities excellent, always clean and very modern. Views are fantastic and James tries to ensure that all visitors get a view of the mountains.

40 minute walk into Hay, either along signed path over fields or via quiet lane. Hay is lovely, full of book shops, craft shops, clothes shops and good pubs.

The Indian restaurant 'Red Indigo' is superb but booking advisable. Also good fish & chip shop. I am new to caravanning, having always preferred hotels, but I love this site and will return again and again.

 Nerys & James can be justifiably proud of their creation.

Not only do the immaculately clean facilities, neat layout of pitches & good access do them credit, but when added to their warm & professional manner, a competitive tariff & the brilliant views, this site becomes a must for anyone looking to visit Hay on Wye or just walk in this beautiful area of the Wye valley along the Offa's Dyke trail.

One can quibble about the traffic noise on the nearby road during the day but it almost disappears at night & it is more than outweighed by the excellence of this site.

 What a lovely site and would agree totally with previous reviews that this is a gem.

We arrived and fund a clearly marked notice of where to park, an hour or so later owner popped over to say hello, take money and tell us a bit about the area. Really friendly and nothing too much trouble.

Shower / toilet block is immaculate, piping hot water and a credit to the site.

Although the main road is above the site very little traffic noise during the night. ASll the usual ehu, chem disposal, dish wash etc on site. Only 3 hard standings and also 3 statics for hire on site. There is a play field and dog walk at the bottom of the site too.

The owner has a couple of routes to get to Hay on Wye walking - we went across the field in just over an hour but the lanes would be quicker.

At £17 per night this site was real value for money and would recommend.

 Just back from a lovely two night stay at this lovely campsite. Fantastic views over the mountains and the owners were so helpful and friendly. The pitches were flat and gave you plenty of space everything was easily accessible.

Spotlessly clean toilets and showers. Hay on Wye is about 1 and a half miles away and is a very nice town with loads of bookshops and a fabulous antique market where I could have spent hours browsing.

We will definitely return here again but for longer as the site is so peaceful and in beautiful surroundings. We hopefully will bring our friends and have a rally for our Teardrop trailers in the future. This site is highly recommended.

 Can only agree with all the other reviews - absolutely fabulous site.

The site is very small but perfectly situated with a fantastic view of the black mountains. The toilet block is new and was spotlessly clean, whatever time of the day we used it. There is no shop on site but there is a Co-op and a small Spar in Hay-on-Wye.

The owners are very helpful and friendly and it seemed like nothing was too much trouble. James even came round to see us on the morning we left to see if everything was o. K. As he was going out and would not be there when we left.

Hay-on-Wye is a book lovers paradise. Spent many happy hours browsing and purchased a fair few bargains.

James recommended the local pub, the Baskerville Arms, but we didn't use it as the weather was so glorious we had a barbecue instead and just enjoyed sitting out in the evening sun.

If you want a quiet site in a great location, then this one fits the bill and we definitely hope to return.
