About Llansawel Agored

Located 25 minutes from the famous Brecon Beacons National Park, this family-friendly site offers the perfect base for a relaxing off-grid getaway. Guests can spend their day taking part in fun activities like paddleboarding on the Brecon Canal, and evenings unwinding under a starry night sky around the campfire. Tents can pitch up on one of the site's four deluxe non electric grass pitches each measuring 20m x 20m with plenty of space for peace and quiet for everyone. Guests on these pitches will have their own undercover camp kitchen equipped with a cool box, along with a separate compost loo. Outside you will also have a picnic bench and fire pit, perfect for alfresco dining. For those who prefer glamping, the site has two charming bell tents on offer. Each is equipped with one double, two single and two z-bed mattresses, though linen and bedding is not provided. There is also a wood-burning stove so you stay cosy on those cooler evenings. Each of the 6m bell tents also has an undercover camp kitchen fitted with a gas stove, cool box, a table, crockery, utensils and USB chargers. Alongside, you will also have an eco loo, fire pit, seating and a smores kit for you to enjoy around the campfire! Please note, this is a pet free site. Guests must also be a Greener Camping Club member, but this can be purchased when you book.

Camping is available from the end of April to 1st October, bell tents from 16th May to 10th September.

A note from the site themselves...

I have been fortunate to travel and to work overseas, spending a good amount of time in New Zealand, America and Malaysia I have used these experiences to create what I would like from a campsite.

Along with gaining incite while visiting other countries, I do a lot outdoors in the UK as a coach educator for British Canoeing, a mountain leader, mountain bike coach, bushcraft activity leader and a Duke of Edinburgh expedition assessor. Through the Covid lockdowns, I appreciated what I had in my local area and have taken the decision to share my space with others.

Clever balance of amenities and back to nature

Bell Tent - Bell TentsAug 2023

Great little site, just the right balance of well thought out amenities and a back to nature environment. We went as a group of brothers with older children, opting for the Bell tent with supplied equipment, giving us the right balance of proper camping yet with the well thought out facilities making it all that bit easier without taking away the fun. Our Bell tent was in a glade all on its own too. A good base for further exploring, Rhys was on hand to offer great advice too. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Bell Tent - Bell TentsAug 2023

Rhys was so thoughtful and helpful. Everything and more already there, views stunning and the stars at night just breathtaking. Loved having a fire pit, site very quiet and not over run. Bring wellies, walking boots as walkways are grass. First time my six year old granddaughter has been camping and she adored it. The kitchen area is a great idea under shelter. There are kennels nearby and you can hear the dogs barking at various times, however a small issue in an otherwise beautiful spot.

A hidden gem in Wales

Large Tent - Camping With Equipment Aug 2023

This campsite was beautiful. Quiet and calm with beautiful views across the Valleys. Rhys was a perfect host making sure we were comfortable everyday and just chatting like a human should. He is a very switched-on chap with a clear vision for his little slice of heaven in the Welsh hills. The ideas he has for the site are very impressive and he has a great orchid of delicious apples that he was kind enough to allow us to sample. It's early days for this site since COVID and for us, it is a new regular haunt. Location of the site puts you close enough to everywhere. The hot water gas showers were great,I do love having a hot shower outdoors. It's good for the soul. Thanks Rhys for being a great host and keep up the great work. We will be back.👍🏼
