We picked this site mainly because it is an adult only site. Was very impressed by the pictures on the website as well.
Site is very small which is perfect for us as we don't like a lot of noise from other campers, especially being in a tent.
We were on pitch 11 which backed onto the road. The main traffic noise is from the tractors going past, it was annoying at first, but we got used to it. The setting is beautiful and apart from the odd bit of traffic noise, is very peaceful.
The facilities are wonderful, 3 large shower rooms with toilet and sink and a separate toilet. The washing-up area has 2 sinks and a freezer and microwave for all guests to use. There is a small room with a t. V. And comfy chairs and finally a room with washing machine and tumble dryer.
Everyone was very helpful and welcoming.
We will definitely be going back.
Oh yes, nearly forgot to mention the famous Max, what a star, he tended to gravitate to us as we don't have a dog. He might be old, deaf and slow on his paws, but his sense of smell is working just fine. Make sure you put extra on the bbq for Max.
We cannot add much more about this site than has already been said. The facilities are 5 Star plus. Despite the site being full towards the end of our stay we did not have to queue for loo’s or washing up facilities. All in all we can not see how Tony & Lorraine can improve the site.
As previously commented there is some traffic noise, which is unfortunate, as it disturbs the tranquillity of the place. However this is generally confined to going to work & coming home time.
It was great that there is no Orange phone signal. This added to the peace and quiet. There is a nearby back lane that is a pleasant walk to the Bell pub this takes about 20 min each way, but to be honest the “traditional pub”, The Angel at Grosmont is more to our liking.
Nearby we found Abergavenny a really pleasant town which has most things including a really great traditional butchers shop, Rawlings. This is on a street leading to the newly completed Brewery Car Park. He is well worth a visit – he really does sell excellent meat!
Within an hour’s drive is the Brecon Mountain Railway which operates steam. Standing on the veranda at the end of the coaches greatly enhances the involvement I felt, including a few coal smuts! We also visited Big Pit which was excellent, and free of charge. We found some elements of the day we spent there very humbling.
Finally, we appreciated the relaxed approach Tony & Lorraine had towards departure time. It was great not to feel under time pressure due to the relaxed rules on site.
We cannot end this review without mentioning Max, who is a delightful and friendly dog, and who greatly enjoyed his treats from our barbecue!
Absolutely beautiful site in stunning rural location. It was lovely to hear the babbling of the stream and the distant farmyard sounds of sheep and cows. Little Max the 15 year old terrier was a complete delight and it was wonderful watching him visit all the people on site that didn’t have a dog but unfortunately we didn’t have the pleasure of a personal visit as we had our dog with us. Apparently he doesn’t like competition!
The showers were to die for and surely the best on any campsite in the UK. They were so spacious we felt a bit guilty taking up the space on our own. They were truly luxurious with lovely hot water and spotlessly clean.
The laundry and washing up facilities were also spotless. We didn’t really venture too far off site as the purpose of this short 2 night visit was to test out our new awning but there are some lovely walks in the vicinity and the village of Skenfrith is about a mile away.
The TV signal here is very poor but there are TV points on the EHU’s but you will need a TV cable. Due to the remoteness of the location I could not get a broadband signal on my dongle or my mobile phone. That just adds to the lovely feeling of getting away from it all but if you need to be contactable this site may not be for you.
We only met one of the owner’s Tony who was so helpful and went beyond the call of duty. On the Friday evening he went on the ‘fish and chip run’ and collected everyone’s food for them as the van stops in the nearby village about 3 miles away.
Also when we had a few problems with our awning getting tangled in an overhead tree, Tony was first out with the step ladder and shears. There is no shop on site and the owners live right opposite. I think they ought to consider selling a few essentials either from their house or with an honesty box set up. With all the local farmers nearby, I think some local produce would go down a storm.
The only negatives I would point out about this site is that if you are a sun worshipper, ask not to be allocated pitches 4 or 5 as due to their position and the tall trees behind the pitches they are in the shade most of the day until about 6. 30pm so can feel a bit chilly. Also considering the country location I was surprised at the traffic noise from the road behind which is quite busy but didn’t distract from the lovely time we had.
To summarise this is a lovely, small and intimate, well kept, relaxing, friendly adult only site that is excellent value for money. We will definitely return.
Awesome to say the least. This has to go down as the best site I have been to. So peaceful and the surroundings fantastic. The shower block is 5* amenities. Max the resident dog is smashing. The owners are extremely friendly and very very accommodating.
Plenty of walks surrounding the site. The three castles are all within walking distance. 2 of which for the more serious walkers. The lane outside was enough for us two oldies and our dogs which takes you to Skenfrith Castle.
The nearest pub is a lovely 1 mile walk. Take plenty of cash with you. A bit on the expensive side.
2 other pubs approx 4-5 mile drive. All in all fantastic place and I highly recommend this site for a nice quiet get away from it all location.
This Adults only site is Five star with 5 star facilities and Hosts!
Lorraine & Tony were perfect hosts, a warm and friendly welcome, including Max the terrier, with always a wagging tail. He checked us out! then visited every day for Rich Tea biscuits & Toffee Cake.
Good sized pitches - with Lovely views - Great location for Hereford - Wye valley and Welsh Valleys.
The Angel at Grosmont great friendly pub, food and live music! excellent.
The nearby 3 Castles and Big Pit & Iron Works, well worth visiting.
Supermarkets in Monmouth & Abergaveny
Already booked return visit! - Thanks for a great time.
Lovely site in the country. Our pitch was next to the stream, complete with wandering ducks. Very friendly welcome.
Electric hookup and TV. We had no TV cable so owner made us one and loaned it to us for the duration of our stay.
Toilet block superb - toilet/shower/washbasin cubicles in a 'bungalow' in the centre of the site, kept immaculately and well stocked with soap, hand lotions etc. Also, small book exchange, hairdryer, communal TV in (very)small communal lounge.
Only real downside is lack of shops/cafes/pubs in vicinity.
This site is a real gem, neat and well maintained with excellent shower and toilet facilities and big level pitches.
The site is ideally located for exploring, with great walks including the Three Castles Walk locally and the Brecon Beacons and Forest of Dean both a short drive away.
But, the best thing about this site is the welcome. Tony and Lorraine are great hosts and go the extra mile, from Easter Cards and Eggs and Royal Wedding cakes to loaning us a slow cooker and finding the odd jubilee clip for a quick repair.
We enjoyed regular visits from Max the dog (who has a nose for bacon and BBQ's) and the ducks and we found the locals that chatted to equally friendly and welcoming.
Without a doubt one of the best sites we have ever visited.
We have just returned from staying at this campsite, the toilets are great and the site is very clean, the water, for showering, and washing dishes was very good,
but we will not stay again due to the noise from the road next to the campsite, it starts at about six in the morning, and does not stop until late in to the night,
The area around the site is very pretty, and has a lot to see, but we will stay near to Monmouth next time
My husband and I just got back from an excellent 5 day stay at the Three Castles. What an amazing site. We chose to stay here because Lorraine the owner and site manager was so welcoming and friendly over the phone. When we arrived at the site we were not disappointed. This is a small, but well equipped site.
The pitch for our tent was roomy and flat backing onto the stream Shower facilities are very clean and well maintained. Lots of nice touches such as hand cream, air freshener, face wipes and sanitary bags for ladies. There is a TV room and laundry which we did not use, but both looked clean. There is also a small library which was a bonus as I managed to loan and read a great book. The site also had really helpful information on the surrounding area and things to do. We visited the local church and all 3 Castles which were very picturesque and beautiful. The pitches are well spaced and the location is perfect for visiting local villages, walks and cycling.
Shower and washing up facilities are in the middle of the site so no long treks required during the emergency night loo visit. A small stream runs at the back of the site, which provides a beautiful sound to wake to, accompanied only by bird song and a few sheep and ducks bahhing and quacking.
Overall other than the sound of nature the site is fairly quiet although there was some occasional noise from the road behind the site. This did not spoil our stay in the slightest and we will definitely be returning to the site as 5 days was not enough to fit everything in.
We would definitely recommend this site to a friend. Thanks very much Lorraine and Tony for a wonderful stay and for your hospitality. Al and Bev
DO go here if: You like immaculate,pristine showers and loo's. There's even a small TV room.
You want peace and tranquillity.
You need a 'kid-free' time-out.
You prefer a site where the owners let YOU decide the 'rules'. I never saw any. Was never told any.
DO NOT go if: You don't get on with dogs. Tony & Lorraine's scruffy old terrier kind of lives on the site. He's a professional scrounger.
You want to party 'till dawn. It's not that kind of place.
You need to live on your mobile. Very limited coverage there and surrounding area.
You hate waking up to bird song in the mornings.
In years of camping, this is easily the best site we've been to. OK, There's no local shop, and a very pricy pub is a mile away. But a little forethought overcomes that. Tony and Lorraine are perfect hosts. Easter Sunday morning we all woke up to find an Easter card and Easter egg each! Has anyone experienced anything like that at another site?
Go visit and chill. We've booked Aug Bank Hol already. XX
