You’ll pay an average of £100 a night, but budget options dip as low as £9. Horseback riding, wild swims, and wildlife-watching are all on the cards. Just bring your tent and a torch—the rest is easy.

Happy farmer sitting in a truck in a grassy field

With the Brecon Beacons National Park in the south of the county and Snowdonia National Park on its north-eastern edge, this is a landscape that begs to be explored. It’s little wonder then that camping and glamping are popular ways to stay here. It’s a region of mountains and heather moorland, rivers, wooded valleys and waterfalls. It’s also home to quaint Welsh villages and fascinating towns including literature-loving Hay-on-Wye and the food hub of Abergavenny. Whether you're looking for a place to pitch a one-man tent while you're on the trail, a family-friendly site that's great for kids or an upscale glamping getaway, our Powys collection has got it covered.
