Glanusk Caravan Park

A private estate campsite in the Usk Valley where the Brecon Beacons set the scene and the facilities put most sites to shame.

Glanusk Estate sits in the Usk Valley within the Brecon Beacons National Park, with the Black Mountains as a backdrop and the River Usk running through the grounds. The pitches are generous, the surroundings are acres of private countryside, and the morning birdlife is the kind that has guests reaching for earplugs in the best possible way.

The facilities block is the sleeper hit here. Reviewers call it among the best they have encountered at any campsite: eco-conscious, immaculately kept, with powerful hot showers and an outdoor wash-up station that the estate continues to improve. The estate operates a serious fly-fishing stretch, which means dogs are welcome on site but kept off the riverbank.

River and canal walks connect directly to Crickhowell, and the South Wales Traverse trail passes within 2km. For groups the estate offers an indoor space for presentations and workshops alongside the pitches, making it a practical base for organised gatherings as well as a quiet touring stopover. Green Man Festival is among the nearby draws for those timing a visit around the summer calendar.

Before you book

Dogs are welcome on site but not permitted in the river due to the fly-fishing estate.

“One of the better-kept secrets of the Brecon Beacons touring circuit: a proper estate setting with facilities that consistently outperform the surroundings.”
