We have just stayed at Ash Meadow for a week to encompass the Hay-on-Wye Literary Festival. This site is definitely recommended, it’s beautifully kept by the owners. It is set back from the road and all the pitches are good. The remainder of the large field is a wonderful wild flower meadow, we were lucky enough to see Deer at the bottom of the paddock which is bordered by the small, but pretty river Dore, it is great to see a clear river. The owner Mike mows all round the edge so you can stroll around the paddock after a day exploring the area. The views from the site are of the local hills and are beautiful. The fresh eggs from Mike’s chicken are excellent. If you want a base to explore the area, this is a site to consider.
This is a great base to see local attractions, and walking in beautiful countryside. Arthur’s Stone, Moccas Park Wood Nature Reserve (fantastic views and can see the campsite) are good to visit. Good eats at The Pandy Inn, Gwatkins Restaurant and cider shop, and a lovely village shop two minutes drive away at Peterchurch for an excellent stock of provisions.
Hay-on-Wye is a must visit, 7 miles away. Further afield is Gospel Path for the most amazing views..
