Brecon Beacons National Park makes it easy to camp with your dog—over 1,000 pet-friendly sites dot the landscape, from tucked-away riverbanks to open meadows. Expect prices from as little as £8 a night, with the average around £75. Top picks like Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite (185 reviews), Pwllyn Farm Camping (117 reviews), and Hamperley Hideaways (79 reviews) all welcome dogs and put you near mountain streams and endless footpaths. You’ll find basics covered—think toilets, hot showers, and fire pits for chilly nights. Many sites let you fish, swim wild, or ride out on horseback. Bring your wellies and a lead—this is rugged country, and sheep roam freely. Rubbish bins are usually on hand, but always pack out dog waste to keep trails clean for the next traveller.

Ty Llewelyn Glamping and Camping

4. Ty Llewelyn Glamping and Camping

Llanidloes, Wales · 6 units

Tŷ Llewelyn is a small, off grid glamping and camping site on our family farm near Llanidloes in Powys, Mid Wales. We have 15 acres of meadow and woodland with private access to a small river. Great for families and couples who like simple, quiet stays close to nature. We offer off grid camping pitches and simple glamping on our farm. Stays here are low impact, with space to switch off properly for a few days. Set within 15 acres the pitches and glamping units are very well spaced out so it never feels crowded. ŷ Llewelyn is situated, just outside Llanidloes in Powys, Wales. Within the Cambrian Mountains, just 15 minutes from The Hafren Forest and Clewedog Dam and a scenic 35 minute drive from The Elan Valley we are the perfect central location to explore from. So many walking and cycling routes to enjoy then come back to a stunning, off grid base at the end of the day. What to expect from an off grid stay Stays here are better for people who enjoy campfires, stargazing and birdsong rather than bright lights or on site entertainment. Power and lighting are limited, so you will want to bring warm layers and a torch, and be happy with simple facilities. In return you get peace, space and time outdoors in Mid Wales. The great thing about holidaying in Mid Wales is that you are central to everything. Fancy a beach day? no problem, we're just over half an hour away from the University town of Aberystwyth. Here you can take in the breath taking scenery of the coastal path or just enjoy lazy days on the beach. On the way to the coast you could stop off at Bwlch nant yr arian, and don't forget your bike!! With so many trails heading out into the spectacular scenery of the Cambrian Mountains you would have to come back for another stay to get through them.

Monmouth, Wales · 10 units · Tents, Motorhomes

If you’re lucky, you’ll catch at least one of the breathtaking sunsets at Red Sky at Night Campsite near Monmouth. If not, there’s always a stunning view of rolling hills all around. At night, the skies become a dazzling canvas of stars under one of Wales' official Dark Sky Reserves. This family-run camping field on our laid-back livestock farm is full of rustic charm. Pitch wherever feels right—tent or camper van. Dogs welcome but must always be kept on a lead and cleaned up after (dog waste bin on site, otherwise we are a leave no trace site and you should take your rubbish home with you). This year, we’re introducing the “Missing Camper Trail” hidden in the woodland—can you find Colin? You’ll also find a new zip line and a slackline for adventurers big and small. Mud Café and den building are still here, along with teddy bears scattered through the woods—no official trail, just hidden friends to find. Also new this season - a handcrafted washing-up area built by Farmer Ben from wood right off our farm. Coming soon: We’re hoping for showers this season, but we’ll update when they’re up and running. Wild camping here means no electricity—just two lovely compost loos and a covered cold-water tap. So bring your guitar, light a fire, and soak up the simplicity... The way camping was intended.

Martinhoe, England · 40 units · Tents, Motorhomes

Wake up to sea air, wide open skies and the sound of nature at this peaceful, wild-style campsite on the North Devon coast. Set on an organic working farm, each spacious field has no more than six pitches, giving you plenty of room to relax, explore and enjoy the incredible coastal views. Campfires are very much part of the experience. We provide raised firepits to borrow, with logs available to buy on site, making evenings perfect for stargazing, sharing stories and unwinding together around the fire. The campsite is located just outside the small hamlet of Martinhoe, with direct access to the South West Coast Path for spectacular coastal walks straight from your pitch. A historic Roman beacon sits nearby, and the surrounding farmland is rich in wildlife — deer are often spotted in neighbouring fields, alongside birds of prey and songbirds. Facilities are simple and low-impact, with a compost toilet and a water point provided. There is no electricity, no showers and no Wi-Fi — a delightfully off-grid setting designed for those who value peace, space and time outdoors. Spacious, calm and family-friendly, this is an ideal place to slow down, reconnect with nature and enjoy a truly rural coastal escape.

Our beautiful home is a glamping and camping site with its own gorgeous fishing lake on the outskirts of the village of Llandyfan. You can find us to the west of the Brecon Beacons or Bannau Brycheiniog National Park. Llandyfan Campsite has been lovingly re-established in early 2024 by Andy and Jo. Since taking ownership, we have rolled up our sleeves and got stuck into restoring it to its former glory and will soon be back to being a fully operational slice of Welsh heaven. Our first focus has been the fishing lake which we opened in March. The campsite followed in May. We are currently working on electric hook ups and other improvements. We have chickens on site that roam free during the day. They are friendly and like to wander around the tents to say hello to our guests! We would like everyone who visits to have a great time and a relaxing break. Whilst here please be considerate towards others, to their property, and while using the facilities. If you have any concerns, please let us know. We have brought out a few rules from our T&Cs and we kindly ask that you have a read through before your stay. Litter: You must pick up your litter. Please either take it with you or recycle it appropriately in the bins onsite. There are bins around the campsite, please recycle where possible. Pitches to be left as you found them. Noise: Be respectful and consider your neighbours. Keep noise to a minimum after 10pm and before 8am in the morning. No loud music is to be played at any time. Children: Children must be supervised at all times around the campsite and can play within the pitch space allocated to you. At quiet times, it may be possible for children to use vacant pitches for play but this cannot be guaranteed. The amenity block and associated facilities are not to be used as a play area. Dogs: Must not to be left unattended. Are to be kept on leads at all times whilst on the campsite. (We are working on an enclosed dog walking area, however this is not yet available). no refunds on bookings if cancelled withing 10days of booking

Beautiful, almost wild camping with my 13yr old son, who was looking for an 'Outdoor Boys' (YouTube) type experience. Came on a Monday so nice and quiet with only 1x other family staying. We camped in the woods, cooked over an open campfire and paddled in the stream. Water was lovely and clear and the sound of the stream was like a natural white noise soundtrack. David came to check we were all okay in the evening, a lovely person who was very laid back and helpful. As the sun went down there were a few bats flying low which were fun to watch. Had a great time and will look to come back.

Weekend Trip to Peaceful countryside

Had a perfect weekend with a group of friends and kids, had the full field to ourselves, campfires, games, hanging out in the woods, adventuring down to the river. Very much a wild camp set up with simple basic facilities, very peaceful with fire pits provided, lots of wildlife and fed the chickens and met the horses. Hosts could not have been more accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed, helping us find a good swimming spot in the river and even hosting an impromptu gig. If you’re after a quiet natural wild camp experience could not recommend more! And Hereford is a short drive away for supplies etc

Weekend Trip to Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

Beautiful meadow with loads of space between the pitches, and other considerate campers. A rather relaxing weekend with fantastic hosts who took the time to talk with us. The composting loos are rather small with steep steps, but don't worry, there's also a flushing loo in the main block, in a much larger space in the shower room. We walked down to the river in the valley and up and along it to the pub for a sandwich, a nice cool option for a very hot day. The path was rather overgrown in places, so beware of stingers - or take the longer route!

Lovely spot. George the horse is a charmer, and his owner came round to say hello too! A little gem of a site - shame that one family decided to camp right on the river and block access to the ‘beach’ for paddling. There’s always one!

We loved staying here. Pridie came to have a chat with us in the evening, and all the other campers were friendly we felt really welcome. Excellent showers, and generally all really well set up, clean and well presented. Also lovely big van pitch in the meadow, will definitely head back soon. Thanks.

This campsite is beautiful! We were a group of 11 and stayed in the woodland next to the river. The woodland was so cool during a very hot weekend and having the option to just have a sit down in the river was a game changer (the river itself is super clean and seems very healthy!). David is also a lovely host ☺️ we will definitely be coming back!

Camped for two nights with my family including two young kids under 3. We had a fantastic time, great views (day and night), caters nicely for kids without being over the top and providing the right amount of outdoor natural play, good basic facilities (absolutely fine by us!). Lots to do nearby. Pizza horse box was a great last minute addition that meant we could avoid cooking too! We would love to come back and stay longer! Thanks for the hospitality and providing such a great space!

David was a fabulous and friendly host. We had a lovely pitch and the site was just right for its proximity to Pen Y Fan which was one of the reasons we picked this site. The site was great for our dog who loved the water and freedom of having some off lead adventures. David is very easy going and as long as they're not a nuisance it's fine. We loved saying hello to George the horse and he had some little treats from us. Overall a great experience however if I were to be at all critical there's only one thing .. Another few campers arrived the following day and set up their tents right in front of the toilet area making it a little awkward for us as we then had to navigate around their camp to use it. The site instructions do ask politely for campers to keep the area around the toilet accessible... but I know not everyone follows those.. I think the toilet could do with a little bit of TLC as the door is a little worn out .. also it was a bit messy in there on our arrival so I did have to have a little tidy up Overall though a great little wild camping site where you can enjoy camp fires and the tranquility and listening to the sound of the water.. we would stay here again.
