Ynysfaen CAMPING
Camping in Brecon Beacons
Its been said that we have one of the flattest camping fields in Wales which is wonderful. Plenty of space for you to choose your own pitch and we don’t like to “squeeze” you in. Quality not quantity. All that we ask is that you are considerate to your fellow campers when you are pitching up, there’s plenty of space for everyone.
You can choose to pitch near to the babbling River Usk or the quiet area at the bottom of the field, however, be warned its quite a long trek to the toilets!! Strong bladders are required. Where ever you want to pitch, the choice is yours. Enjoy use of our picnic benches.
Please note that the camping pitches do not have any EHU (Electric Hook Up) other than our specified camper van /Tent pitches and we do not have any plug points in our shower block for any electrical appliances or charging points.

We have just returned from our first family camping trip and thanks to Elaine and Duncan at Ynysfaen we are now hooked! Ynysfaen is a tranquil and beautifully stunning place which is kept spotlessly clean. The shower and toilet ‘block’ is more like a bathroom at home. Not what I expected from a campsite!
Rhian
This is one of the most beautiful and clean campsites I have ever stayed at in a long lifetime of travel and camping. It is nestled in a peaceful corner of the Brecon Beacons, not far from Trecastle and the glorious Black Mountains. At night it is utterly quiet, and the sky is amassed with stars.
Eipie
We had a fantastic stay at this superb campsite in a beautiful location. Elaine and Duncan are very welcoming & helpful. There is plenty of space and the river Usk babbling nearby make it a very relaxing spot with red kites flying overhead! Dogs are welcome too. We hope to return soon & highly recommend it.

We allow two pitches per week for booking in well behaved dogs. You are welcome if you book in advance, at £2 per night per dog. Dogs must be kept on a lead and under control at all times while on site due to surrounding farmland and our insurance policy. All doggy do do’s must be taken off site to “complete” where possible and dogs MUST be cleaned up afterwards. We do supply a doggy do do bin and we have a supply of do do bags if you need them. We also have a dog watering bowl located at the front entrance to Ynysfaen so they can refresh after their long treks.
We only allow campfires if logs and kindling are purchased (only £5 for both) from ourselves. Fire pits are provided free of charge which we would prefer you to use due to the safety aspect. We can also supply a BBQ (where available) with a bucket of charcoal for £5. Please be advised that we are only able to take cash payments while on site.

We have a strict no noise policy after 10.00pm. We would prefer that you do not play any sort of music but if you do, please ensure that it is only audible for yourselves.
