Lodge Field
Lodge Field, simple, peaceful...
Breaking into the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park is a piece of cake from Lodge Field Rural Campsite. Just outside the national park, 20 minutes’ drive from Llangorse Lake and 45 minutes from the National Showcaves Centre for Wales, this simple, dog-friendly site is well-based for a whirlwind of outdoor activities, from pony trekking and gorge walking in the national park to paddleboarding and windsurfing on the lake.
What will your lodgings look like? Well, this is a rural site and that’s the tune of the five-acre field, which has 12 native trees, countryside on all sides and simple facilities including mains drinking water and chemical waste disposal (you’ll need your own toilet facilities to do your business).
You'll spot the Black Mountains from here - handily, the activity centre five minutes’ drive away runs rock climbing, caving, canoeing and other activities there. Hay-on-Wye’s just 10 minutes’ drive away too, where canoe hire or pony trekking are some of the ways to get moving.
You might want to hole up in one of the town's cafés or pubs afterwards, but for those of you keen to keep moving, there are walking and cycling trails around the site – and two friendly local pubs five minutes’ drive away for another pitstop.
You won’t be twiddling your thumbs in the evening either, as raised firepits and barbecues are permitted on site. As the saying goes, you’ll need to take only photographs and leave only footprints by taking all your rubbish home, as there are no bins provided on site.
