Priory Mill Farm

Parc Cenedlaethol Bannau Brycheiniog


With a cobbled courtyard, an ancient mill building, free-range chickens and a lush camping meadow by the Honddu, this is pretty much camping heaven, all just a five-minute riverside walk from Brecon. Local wood and charcoal are supplied so you can set a campfire, plus there's a semi-enclosed shelter for cooking and chatting, and a covered bike locker for riders.
