If you’re lucky, you’ll get to see at least one of the amazing sunsets at Red Sky at Night Campsite near Monmouth – but if you don’t, there’s mighty compensation in the shape of the spectacular views from just about everywhere on the site. And of course, on clear nights, the night skies are diamond-bright with stars - we are under one of Wales' Dark Sky Reserves!
This family-run camping field on a livestock farm is managed on very laidback lines. Pitch up wherever you like and feel free to park by your tent (weather permitting). Raised campfires are allowed and you can hire firepits and grills (the owners sell local eggs & sausages) and buy bags of wood & kindling. You can bring your dogs too (take them for walks in the adjoining woods) but just be sure to keep them on a lead.
Kids are certainly carefully looked after here. Get a fact sheet on arrival and join mini-campers in wildlife hunts through the trees, looking out all the while for buzzards and red kites. Round and about the site, your offspring can entertain themselves on rope swings, making dens and following a mini-tractor course across the camping field. There’s also a football pitch.
Wild camping this may be (there’s no electricity on site, please note) but there are two nicely designed compost loos and a covered sink areas with fresh water tap. So bring your guitar, light that fire, break out the barbecue and enjoy the chilled vibe.

Staying in the Horsebox was just fabulous, so much to do, we enjoyed darts, ping pong, table football, tree net and the fabulous skate park. Our hosts were so friendly and we booked wood fired pizza for our evening meal which was delicious. Perfect for an adventurous stay for our boys 14th birthday weekend.

A very warm welcome from Nigel at the site, with explanation of the site.
We loved staying in one of the pre-pitched bell tents, so cosy and warm with very comfy beds! Warm shower and clean composting loo. Helpful little things like the - rechargeable lanterns for use and bottle lanterns when it got dark. A plus too, lots of kitchen ware and crockery.

2 nights at Cuddfan - The Hiding Place
Thanks Mark for the lovely stay! The area is secluded and picturesque, which really gave us the feeling of living a nomadic life with just the basic amenities.
A few tips for future visitors:
Bring a hanging light or headlamp, as it gets very dark and there’s no lighting provided.
There’s a gas stove and cooking area, but you’ll need to bring your own utensils.
Pack warm duvets and thick jackets if you’re visiting in autumn, as nights can get very cold.
🚗 Important: Do not drive your car down to the tent. Park just after entering the gate and walk down instead. I missed the host’s message about this, got stuck trying to drive back up, and had to be rescued by a farmer with his tractor (thankfully the host responded quickly and was super helpful!).
Despite that little adventure, I absolutely loved the stay and would highly recommend it if you’re looking for a unique experience without the hassle of putting up a tent yourself.

This was a super last-minute booking, despite knowing that it was going to be pretty wet all weekend. Despite the rain, this was a magical place and my son and I had a special time together. The rain maybe made it even more special.
Anna is lovely and very helpful and their dog spent quite a lot of time with us because he realised we would continue to throw a stick for it until we went to sleep. Which was bliss!

It was my first time at a campsite and it was a great experience. The pitches are far apart from each other so you get a lot of privacy.
Each pitch is leveled and comes with a firepit.
The views are gorgeous.
I wish there were more toilets as often we had to wait. The toilet is not separate from the shower so if someone is showering the toilet becomes unavailable. I was happy to use the compost toilet but my girlfriend preferred the flushable one.
Would definitely camp here again.

Campsites near Symonds Yat guide
Where to go
Forest of Dean
Campers can forest bathe in the tranquillity of nature within the ancient Forest of Dean—the first National Forest Park. Set up camp in one of the Forestry England Camping sites in spacious pitches with electric hookups, clean facilities, and showers. Dog-friendly glamping pods are also available in the forest. Then, embark on scenic hiking trails like the Sculpture Trail, where art installations blend seamlessly with nature. Mountain biking enthusiasts can also explore dedicated trails, including Verderers Trail, which offer an adrenaline-filled adventure amidst the woodland beauty.
Symonds Yat Rock
For incredible vistas, head to Symonds Yat Rock—an iconic viewpoint that overlooks River Wye and its meandering valley. Hike to Biblins Bridge and try a hand at orienteering, or trek to the rock's summit via Symonds Yat Rock Trail to see stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Birdwatching at this spot is exceptional, with a designated Peregrine viewpoint providing opportunities to witness the majestic birds in flight. Choose from nearby family-run campsites and holiday parks along the main trails with essential amenities like electric hookups, clean toilets, and hot showers.
Clearwell Caves
Venture underground to explore the mysterious world of Clearwell Caves, a network of ancient iron ore mines with a fascinating history. Take guided tours to learn about the mining processes and admire the impressive rock formations underground. This unique experience offers a break from traditional camping activities and provides a glimpse into the region's past. Above ground, campers can stay on-site at traditional field campsites for tents or in nearby holiday parks for caravans.
When to go
In spring and summer, the forest comes alive with vibrant flora and fauna, making it ideal for hiking and birdwatching with average temperatures ranging from 10–25°C. Autumn brings a stunning array of colours as the leaves change for vibrant hikes in the region. Winter temperatures typically range from 0–10°C. The season offers a serene and tranquil atmosphere with opportunities for peaceful walks in the forest and cosy evenings around the campfire.
