This site is a sloping hay meadow situated beneath Pen Y Fan with fantastic walking access to the northern side of the Brecon Beacons. There are 360 degree panoramic views along the length of the Beacons and across to the lower ground around Brecon. You pitch up wherever you like. There is a tap, a chemical waste disposal and a bin. What else do you need? You can get a mobile signal and some caravans were able to get TV reception. There was so much space that everyone was well separated. The grass is long until mid July to allow the meadow flowers to grow. Why you would look at a Tv when you have the grandeur of the mountain scenery is a mystery.....and most people did what we did which was to sit outside and watch the sun set and the lengthening shadows of the hills until the first stars appear. We did have good weather! The owners farm is half a mile away and he is very friendly and helpful. Unless you go to see him, he will leave you alone which is fine by us. Downsides might be getting stuck after heavy rain; you would need to be a careful about which bit of the field you used. Some people don't like long grass. It is a 30 minute walk across a lovely footpath to the village pub. Quicker by bike but uphill coming back. For people who like walking, prefer lots of space around you and are not bothered that the site does not resemble someone's front garden but like the real outdoors - this site is perfect. It's a proper CL site and not a caravan park.
