Brynich is a beautiful site. The facilities were always clean. There is a shop on site that supplies groceries including newspapers and magazines. We enjoyed it so much, we are returning for a week in September.

Brynich is a lovely park in one of the most stunning locations we've ever camped. The site is beautifully laid out with big pitches and LOADS of space for the kids to run around. The shop is really well stocked, there is a cracking restaurant next door and an excellent indoor children's area beside that. There's great walks from the site along the canal and the shower facilities are really clean & well kept. Wasn't impressed with the warden, but the site is owned by the Caravan Club, so hopefully he won't be there next year. Apart from him the site is faultless.

Brilliant site, very clean and superb facilities. Plenty of facilities for children, dog friendly. Restaurant is highly recommended and many locals also use this facility which obviously speaks volumes. Not exactly the cheapest site around but you get what you pay for. We had a fully serviced pitch and could not have asked for more. You certainly get what you pay!!!

Family-run Brynich offers a lovely setting, excellent facilities and a warm welcome. It’s no surprise to learn that it has picked up a string of awards and enjoys large numbers of repeat visitors, both from those who enjoy the great outdoors and those who just want to relax.
The site is located on the A470, less than two miles from the old market town of Brecon. Low hedges and flowerbeds separate the 130 generously sized pitches that are spread over its 20 acres.
It boasts terrific facilities, too: those with very young children will appreciate the excellent
baby-changing facilities, while there is a separate area within the main block for disabled visitors.
Children are well catered for: if it rains, they can use the barn complex next to the main site, which houses an excellent play and activity area. A separate part of the barn contains a bar and restaurant providing good, reasonably priced food. The Wales & Monmouthshire canal runs close to the site and provides lots of walking and boating opportunities. For the more energetic, the Brecon Beacons are 15 minutes’ drive away, with glorious walks and views over the surrounding countryside.

This family-run site, which has the Brecon Beacons as its panoramic backdrop, provides excellent facilities and offers a warm welcome to all guests. It’s popular both with those who enjoy outdoor pursuits and those who just want to relax. Low hedges and colourful flowerbeds separate the good-sized pitches.
Better toilets would be hard to find. Separate facilities in the main building are provided for the disabled, and those with very young children will appreciate the excellent baby-changing facilities.
Children are well catered for: if it rains, there is an excellent indoor children’s play and activity area in a former barn adjacent to the main site. Admission costs up to £3.75 for three- to 11-year olds, while babies up to one-year-old go free. Another part of the barn contains a licensed restaurant providing good-quality food at reasonable prices.
The Wales and Monmouthshire Canal runs close to the site, and the old market town of Brecon is a 20-minute walk along the towpath. The beautiful views of the Beacons are a mere 15-minute drive away.
The park has picked up a string of awards. It’s no wonder that many visitors return; sites of this quality are hard to find.

This family-run site offers a wonderful setting – the Brecon Beacons provide a panoramic backdrop – excellent facilities and a warm welcome. The site is just as popular with those who enjoy outdoor pursuits as those who want to relax. Low hedges and colourful flowerbeds separate the good-sized pitches.
Better standards of sanitary facilities would be hard to find elsewhere. Separate toilet facilities for the disabled are provided within the main block and those with very young children will appreciate the excellent baby-changing facilities.
Children are well catered for on site: if it rains, there is a barn complex nearby which houses an excellent indoor play and activity area. Another, separate, part of the barn contains a bar and restaurant providing good-quality food at reasonable prices.
The Wales & Monmouthshire canal runs close to the site, and the old market town of Brecon is a 20-minute walk along the canal towpath. For the more energetic, the Brecon Beacons are 15-minutes’ drive away and provide glorious walks with wonderful views. Not surprisingly, this park has picked up a string of awards.

The family-run Brynich Caravan Park, developed out of farmland on the fringes of the Brecon Beacons, has been gradually built up by Colin and Maureen Jones to a very high standard.
The 20-acre site, made up of three well-maintained fields, has hardwood trees offering ample shelter. There’s more than enough room for 130 units, with hardstanding on many pitches, and 108 electric points (10/16A). There are two modern heatable toilet and shower blocks, all containing individual washbasin cubicles.
Nestled within Brecon Beacon National Park, Brynich is ideal for walking. There is a range of gradients to challenge and satisfy hikers and climbers of all levels. There are also a number of less punishing routes along the Monmouthshire Canal towpath.
In a sloping field beside the site is an extensive dog walk which follows Brynich Brook towards the valley. The stream is shallow and is an added attraction for older children. There is also an adventure playground and a field for ball games, whilst the site offers play equipment for younger children in the reception area. Fishing, bike hire, horseriding, watersports and golf are all available within easy reach of the site. In Brecon, market days are held on Tuesdays and Fridays, and Hay-on-Wye is a short drive away.
