About
Situated in the stunning Brecon Beacons National Park, The Brecon Beacons Camping & Caravan Park is part of the National Showcaves of Wales and is a great holiday base for your caravan, motor home, or tent.
You could not find a better holiday base for your caravan, motor home, or tent. Voted one of the top 25 caravan parks in Britain by a national newspaper, the camping and touring site is very environmentally friendly as your electrical needs are produced on site by hydro generators and solar panels.
The site is ideal for country lovers who value peace and quiet in an area of truly outstanding natural beauty. Simply forget about everything for a magical few days in this unspoilt part of Wales! If your holiday expectations include climbing magnificent mountains, walking behind raging waterfalls, exploring mysterious gorges, or even visiting a castle clinging to the top of a cliff, then you could not find a better location and you will find many excellent pubs a short drive from the site for your evening meals.
Throw your cares away for a while, as you sit and relax by the site's river pathways watching it makes its journey down the valley to the sea, just 20 miles away. (A great day out is the ‘Gower Coast,’ just an hour’s drive away).
Should all the above be too much for you, then don’t worry, the peace and quiet of the site, together with its beautiful mountain scenery will allow you to unwind and dream away the day.
