About Cwm Wye Camping
A wonderful location to switch off. This off-grid site offers an 'almost wild' experience in the beautiful Powys countryside. A haven for wildlife, the site is just a stone's throw from the River Wye with the woodland providing a restful shaded area. There are just five non electric grass pitches onsite, each dotted around to ensure optimum peace and quiet. Each pitch allows tent and trailer tent campers only, with up to six guests per pitch. Evenings can also be spent enjoying the communal fire pit, with all firewood provided. Bring your marshmallows, cook up a BBQ or simply unwind and have a chat with the other campers. This is a dog free site, and individual fire pits are not allowed. Please note, the site is a member of the Greener Camping Club so at least one of each party must be a member, but this can also be purchased when you book.
Cwm Wye Camping is open from 01/05 to 29/09.
Site facilities include two compost loos, a hot shower, washing-up area, a seating area and a communal fire pit. Firewood is also included.
Builth Wells is also a ten minute drive away where you will find The Fountain Inn and multiple other eateries. For picking up any essentials, there is also a Co-Op.
