 We've just spent four wonderful nights at this fantastic site.

We had a warm welcome from the warden's dad and chose to park on the tarmac hardstanding reserved for motorhomes, though a few others parked on the grass without issue.

The new shower block is one of the most impressive we've been in and is a credit to the owners.

There are plenty of eating places within a short distance and the town (village?) shops are really interesting, with lots of cafes too.

We did three cycle rides during our time there, choosing to head out into the hills, though most folk would probably choose to ride the Monmouth & Brecon Canal towpath, which is easily accessible.

We really can't fault this site and look forward to revisiting.

 Fantastic site, excellent facilities and lovely location between the river and village with nice shops and pubs. Owner friendly and very helpful. Best site we visited on a 3 week tour of Wales, can't wait to return and stay for longer.

 Pleasant site and owner. Brand new facilities and washing hanging area that would be useful for walkers. Was able to choose pitch from those not in use.

I was little disconcerted when a group of 6 bikers turned up to camp right next to us but they were not too noisy.

No view of the river, not sure what I was expecting. However very close to it and good choice of restaurants within walking disance.

 Not much to add to previous reviews - this is a little gem of a site for me. The owner was friendly and informative, the pitches were really well maintained and the toilet facilities were first class, as good as the Caravan Club.

There is great walking from the site, public transport nearby and lots of pubs, shops and take-aways within a few minutes walk. The pubs are all dog friendly as well with really quite good pub grub and plenty of choice of real ale for lovers of a brew.

The only downside that I could see was the lack of hardstandings ( which the owner said would be rectified for next year ) but I parked my 4. 2 Tonner on grass and had no problems getting out, even after some mixed weather.

I think the site is adults only which could be a 1 star or 10 dependant on your point of view.

 What a lovely site. Had a very warm and friendly welcome by the young male owner who we believe has just taken over in the last year or so. He was very helpful and gave us information about walks and where to eat etc. Beautiful views all around.

Immaculate new toilet and shower block. Grass pitches small but well maintained. We were offered grass or hardstanding. Hardstanding was a clean tarmaced area which was fine as we are always anxious about getting stuck in rain.

If we returned in Summer we would choose grass. Crickfhowell is a lovely town with lovely eating places and independent shops. Our only reluctance to recommend this site is we were worried that it would become so popular that we could not get a pitch here in the future !

 First Class. Ideal location on the edge of the town. Plenty of good walks close by; mountain, river, canal.

Great access to good eating places.

Excellent value, and top class facilities. Lovely owners. Nothing too much trouble.

Highly recommended.

Reviewer: DaveyDave 26 reviews from this member

 Excellent site in a very picturesque setting. Owner was very friendly and couldn't be more helpful. Facilities were always clean. If I had to fault them I would say that there's not much room in the shower cubicle itself but that's just being picky. Showers were 50p but seem to last quite a while and were the most powerful I have ever used.

Definitely recommend the walk up Table Mountain for exceptional all round views.

This site really is a little gem with very nice owners.

Lovely little town but I wouldn't recommend getting a takeaway from the Wok Experience. We made the mistake of ordering one and it was really awful. The Bridge End pub is 2 minutes walk away and has a nice garden at the side of the river.

 Stayed here for one night to finish our holiday. Great welcome from new owner who is working hard to update site and facilities.

Site handy for walking into village for range of places to eat. Good base for walking holiday.

 This is a great campsite on the edge of Crickhowell. The grounds are beautifully kept and level and there are plenty of facilities which although not particularly modern are immaculately clean. Wifi is free and there is a good Vodaphone and EE signal for 4G.

Pretty little town with local shops butchers, bakers etc plus some other really interesting shops. Several pubs in fact spoilt for choice. We ate at the Dragon which was excellent pub food. It is a thriving place and there is also a ruined castle.

We have a dog and there are really good walks along the banks of the River Usk and also up to the canal and beyond. The scenery is beautiful. The owner of the site couldn't be more accommodating and we will be returning.

Reviewer: Quanglewangle 1 review from this member

 Lovely site and owner, Alex, was very accommodating. Very close to dog friendly pubs serving excellent food and beer. Shower block/toilet basic but OK. Flat pitches well tended lawns.

Have to exercise dogs in park next door and name 'Riverside' tad misleading as cant see river from site. Lots of fab walking around and locals very friendly.
