Campsite 360° – Wild Freedom in the Black Mountains
Tucked away in the untamed beauty of the Black Mountains, Campsite 360° is a true off-grid retreat for those seeking peace, space, and adventure. With panoramic views stretching to the horizon, this wild, solar-powered haven offers a rare escape from the noise and rush of modern life.
Wake to the sound of birdsong, breathe crisp mountain air, and watch the sun spill across rolling hills and valleys. Whether you pitch a tent under a starlit sky, park up your campervan in a secluded spot, or simply spend your days exploring, Campsite 360° is all about reconnecting with nature – and yourself.
Our land is more than a campsite – it’s a living landscape. You’ll find open meadows, sheltered hollows, and vantage points perfect for soaking up 360-degree views. There are no bright city lights here, just a canopy of stars at night and the distant silhouette of mountains by day.
We welcome solo travellers, couples, families, and small groups looking for a space to gather, celebrate, or simply unwind. If you’re an outdoor enthusiast, the surrounding Black Mountains offer endless opportunities for hiking, cycling, and wildlife spotting. If relaxation is your goal, pull up a chair, light a campfire, and let the world drift away.
Facilities & Features:
Spacious, unmarked pitches for tents and campervans
Off-grid, solar-powered amenities
Fresh air and no traffic noise – just nature
Fire pits available (wood supplied on request)
Pet-friendly – dogs welcome on leads
Stunning views in every direction
Why Choose Campsite 360°?
This is camping as it’s meant to be – simple, peaceful, and in harmony with the land. Our focus is on providing space and freedom, not crowded plots and strict schedules. You’re free to choose your spot, wander the land, and immerse yourself in the rhythms of the natural world.
If you’re looking for an authentic wild camping experience with the convenience of a welcoming base, you’ve found it. Come with an open mind, leave with a full heart.

Guests to Rhos y Gallt describe the campsite as a little gem of a site - small, quite and tranquil with wonderful sunsets. The site can accommodate up to 5 caravans and 10 tents situated on a level 2 acre site within the beautiful rolling hills of Montgomeryshire in Mid Wales.
There are hard standing pitches with electric hook-up as well as grass pitches with and without electric hook-up. There is also a field bordering a river which is used for wild camping - but you'll have to share it with the sheep!
The toilet block has a family wet room with shower, toilet, wash hand basin and baby changing unit, a separate toilet, shower and kitchen area with freezer.
The site borders a river meadow where visitors can wonder down and take a walk down with the river bank, relax by the water edge, throw a few skimmers, do a spot of fishing or even go wild water swimming (at your own risk!).
Well behaved dogs are welcome (maximum 2 per unit).
We were delighted to receive a nomination for The Camping and Caravanning Club Best Hideaway Site in 2021 and grateful to our wonderful guests for the nomination.

68km from Fishguard · 11 units · Tents, Motorhomes
We are a small, peaceful. secluded campsite bordered by woodland and a stream, set amidst the wildlife country of the Ceredigion countryside on the edge of the Cambrian mountains. With only 20 camping pitches and 'The Bothy' shepherd's hut, Teifi Meadows is a place to relax, unwind and appreciate the calming beauty of nature. This is a dark sky zone with stunning celestial views on clear nights, and near-zero light pollution as well as pristine air and water quality. Our guests tend to appreciate the quiet stillness here and we don't have a lot of disturbances...so all you will hear is the wind, the birds, the rushing streams and perhaps the odd cow! :)
Everyone, even the cynical, should have a little romance in their lives. Especially if it includes a scenic setting with easy access to local pubs (a holiday extra that thaws the icy hearts of the cynical even more than blazing sunsets). Teifi Meadows should warm the battery of your camera as well as the cockles of your heart: this is wildlife country – look out for red kites overhead – in the midst of the greenery of the Ceredigion countryside, and close to the walks, dolphin spotting and beaches of the stunning west coast and Cardigan Bay. National Trust sites, River Teifi fishing and canoeing, mountain pony trekking, Roman gold mines and blooming great gardens are in the area too. Lampeter, about three miles away, has plenty of food shops, independent stores and a farmers’ market, and the pub at Cellan, also three miles away, serves food and Sunday lunches - another romantic highlight…

You’re welcome to explore the woods, and let the children splash around in the stream. The campsite is certified by the Greener Camping Club.
Spectacular beaches including Tenby, Saundersfoot and Amroth are just a 20 minute drive away.

We have just come back from a campervan 2 night trip to Panpwnton Campsite. We had a lovely time, it was very quiet as we were the only ones staying…. Probably due to the weather!
This meant we got a great spot right next to the river which was perfect.
The facilities were good. The location was great. We did a walk straight from the site on to part of Offa Dykes path and along to the Knuclas viaduct, great views along the way. We had thought we might get the train back just for fun, but they don’t run very often (would have been a 2hr wait) so walked back instead.
Site also easy walking distance to the local pub for an evening meal which was good too.
Very Dark walk back that evening meant for some great star gazing:-)

Panpwnton Farm is a lovely campsite. Very clean toilets and wash up facilities. I didn't use the showers as I only stayed a couple of nights, however they were spacious.
I will definitely be returning for a longer stay.
It's a lovely walk from the campsite to Knighton, alongside the river.
Trains do pass right along the side of the site but it didn't bother me or my dog. Easy access to Offa's Dyke.

Riverside caravan parks near Fishguard guide
Where to go
Strumble Head & Around
Bulky Strumble Head headland, which shoots up northwest and within walking distance of Fishguard, stands out as one of the best places to watch cetaceans in all Wales. Europe’s biggest bottlenose dolphin pod, plus harbour porpoises and seals, can be described from the towering cliffs and solitary bays. Prehistory lovers, meanwhile, will find burial chambers and ancient forts, and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path runs around the edge of it all.
Dinas Island
Travelling along the coast northeast from Fishguard, the first place to peg out a pitch is at Dinas Island. It’s an ‘island’ in a poetic sense of the word (a grassy, rocky headland with the sea on three sides and a boggy valley dividing it from the mainland) but you’ll feel cut off at the island’s farm campsite. Diversions include the beautiful path running around the island, sealife-watching and the gorgeously located rural pub at Pwllgwaelod.
Gwaun Valley
Meandering amiably along southeast from Fishguard is this gentle valley swaddled by ancient sessile oak and ash woodland: a place where life is lived in the slow lane and traditions long defunct elsewhere continue to thrive (residents still observe the pre-1752 Julian calendar, among other quirks). Narrow lanes wend along the valley bottom and paths snake up onto the bare hills above.
When to go
Weather-wise, April through September offers the most clement and rain-free weather, with the big caveat that this is Wales’ Celtic Sea coast, which is mighty exposed to a lot of wet, windy weather. It’s always a good idea to avoid July and August school holidays to cut the crowds out of your vacation. May is an atmospheric month in Fishguard, as the Fishguard Folk Festival enlivens the town.
