About the site
This Monmouthshire pub site is great for walkers looking for a stopover and families searching for a summer getaway to the great outdoors. Set on the edge of the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park, the site is within easy reach of lots of trails including the Offa's Dyke path, just 20 minutes away. For campervans, trailer tents, roof tents, tourers and motorhomes, there are 16 amp electric hook up pitches. Simply choose between grass or hardstanding! The friendly onsite pub has an extensive menu of food and drink, so what better way to end a day of hiking around the Brecons than with a tasty home-cooked meal? The pub also hosts evening entertainment on weekends, including live singers and quiz nights. Enjoy stunning countryside views from your pitch with surrounding farmland and vistas of the Black Mountain! There is an access gate for keen walkers who wish to walk along the river through the farmland, this is only there for the park visitors and public access is not permitted. You'll also be ten minutes from Abergavenny, the foodie hub of Monmouthshire. Or, if you are looking for a bit more adventure, head to the Brecons or the Offa's Dyke Path, just a 20 minute walk away. Please note, the site is quiet outside of peak holidays and bank holidays, but like all beauty spots and popular destinations, it does get busier during the school holidays and when the sun is shining. Fires are not permitted but BBQs are allowed as long as they are raised from the ground. Dogs are welcome, just please ensure that they are kept on a lead at all times and picked up after so the open space can be used by everyone.
The Rivers Edge is open from 01/03 to 31/10. Pitches from £20/night for 2 people.
