 Have just returned from a long weekend here with mixed feelings. On arrival we were put onto a small camping field where there were 2 parties of approx 3 tents each, one of which already had music playing etc. We expressed concerns as we have a 1 year old daughter but were not offered an alternative. We had no sleep that night as there was singing & music until the early hours. We were hoping that this would be dealt with by the site, however at 2.30am we had to ask one of the parties to be quiet ourselves. We complained the following morning and were offered an alternative pitch (no easy feet to move a 5 person tent!).
We spent the rest of our stay in a lovely spot, the rest of the site was quiet and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The facilities were good, toilet block was clean although there are no cubicles with sinks in which I have found really useful at other sites when the showers are busy.

This a gorgeous well run site along side the river.
The owners were very helpful and have a well stocked shop.
The site is well laid out and as a family of four with two other couples we found it a perfect site for us. Tidy, clean, not too big or noisy, with a fantastically clean toilet / shower block. Also it had recycling facilities which is always good to see
We only stayed 2 nights but will definitely be returning in the future

This is a very nice, well kept site with one of the cleanest shower blocks I have been in. On arrival the owners were very kind and found us a quiet corner pitch in the adults only section, which is normally reserved for caravans and motorhomes, from our point of view a big plus.
The grounds are well cared for and the dog walk was excellent, a path leading through trees to a large field next to the river. The Chainbridge Inn, 300 yds along the road is in an idyllic setting next to the river Usk, unfortunately from our point of view not such idyllic clientèle.
Would recommend the pretty walk along the Usk valley into the town the town of Usk which has a very pretty square, about 9 miles in all. I would certainly return to this site, however, the only minus point and a big minus for us as we do like peace and quiet, is the road, there is a lot of traffic noise for a B road, which starts early in the morning until late evening and it appears to be a favourite route for motorcylists at the weekends, otherwise can't fault the site or the area.

We used the site for a group trip ( four tents, eleven people, one dog ) and were very pleased with the site. The owners were charming , friendly and helpful. The weather was, mostly, appalling, but we still managed to have a fun weekend.
The site is leafy and attractive and well placed for Abergavenny and Usk, towns which are well worth exploring. The camping field is not particularly large and I would suggest booking a pitch in advance at busy times.
The facilities on site are very impressive. Toilets, showers, washing up area, recycling and waste disposal - all excellent. Very clean and neat. We would certainly stay there again and would recommend the site to anyone. Caravanners looked very pleased with their lot too.

What a fantastic site!
Booked for just one night as it is only 12 miles from my house and wanted to try it out but felt as if I was miles away. The site is like something out of a catalogue with perfect kept grass, bushes, hedges and foliage.
The toilets are amazing and as for the free showers, oh my god, they're HUGE!
There is a great pub less than a 5 minute walk away right by the river, lush.
The road running along outside the site didn't realy give us any annoying noise but as the weather was stunning whilst we were there the motorbikes were out doing what they do best in the sun, going very fast, which was a little noisey.
We booked a few days before but got there a little late in the day but were stil offered some nice pitches. Get there early if you book.
The only bad thing I would have to say would be that there are no bins dotted around the site, just one large recycling area and some big bins by the toilets.

Just back from a Spring Bank holiday break at this site.
The owners were very helpful, especially when booking, as our party grew from one caravan to three. The facilities were spotlessly clean and well laid out.
Just a note to anyone interested in kayaking - there's no access to the Usk allowed from site. Llangors resevoir (approx 40 mins away, past Abergavenny), has good facilities for kayaking. Launching fee applicable, also boats for hire, cafe and toilet facilities.
Would definitely visit this site again.

Just back from a weekend at the Pont Kemys site. Very impressed by everything at the site. The tent area whilst small, is beautifully positioned inbetween trees and the river.(fenced off for children). Reception has a small shop toilets etc are fantastic. In keeping with loo of the year award.
There is a small football pitch for the children, but no play park. The chainbridge pub is 300m away. Good honest pub . No credit cards. Patio would be lovely on a sunny day as overlooks the river.
Overall highly recommended.

A very nice site. A friendly welcome and a choice of pitches. The reception shop seemed to have a good selection of most of the things you may need. We were very impressed with the shower and toilet block, it was of a very high standard and spotlessly clean. We took a short stroll to the nearby pub which served a good pint of cask ale and even had an open fire and a lovely riverside location. Only stayed one night but would definitely return again.

We have just returned from this park and felt compelled to report on our stay. We'd had a terrible drive down (bank holiday traffic) and the warm welcome we received alone made the trip to Wales seem worthwhile. The park was immaculate and the shower block was always clean despite the heavy bank holiday use. We were pitched near to the road but weren't disturbed by it.
We found plenty to do in Monmouthshire and the owners were very good at suggesting things to do and see nearby. We took the Usk Valley walk the one day towards Clytha and it was beautiful (walk runs just past the park)
Lastly, the natural surroundings are worth mentioning. The wooded areas on site and on the opposite bank of the river are clearly a haven for wildlife. Waking early one morning I was amazed by the dawn chorus and we saw all manner of different birds on the river - swans, kingfishers, ducks (there's access to the river in a couple of places - in the field above the park which is open to guests at the park and by the reception)
A great stay, we'll be back!

While I agree with most of the past reviews regarding the clean toilet block etc, well stocked shop/ pub on the door step.
I do however feel after returning with our daughter and dog that the site is not well equipped for children and is much better suited for adults only. There is a dog walk (a large field), however the river / countryside is not accessed from the park to walk along and the surrounding roads are without pavements. There are plenty of walks if you want to drive to them.
On booking the site by phone we were told that they had few pitches left, and would we accept a hedge row / road side pitch. I was told that the noise subsides later in the day, to which I accepted the plot. The road directly behind our caravan was used like a race track, the noise was awful, it certainly was not relaxing sitting outside the van, but when in the van the noise shook it.The position was also in an area where they were selling huge RV's so it felt very odd, and some what like a trailor park / truck stop.
All in all a site well over priced for the amenities on offer, and although in the countryside, it didnt feel like it, more like the M4 where we were positioned.

Having decided to return to caravaning after a break of 10 years ( kids growing up etc.!) we decided to look for a quiet site, happy to take our 9 month old dog - Dewi and within an hour and a half tow time from home for our inaugural trip. After having a booking cancelled at the 11th hour due to water logging I had a very quick efficient reply from the owners of Port Kemys. What an excellent choice!
The owners went out of their way to help us ( missing waste pipe, forgot the mallet etc.).
The facilities are perfect - spotless showers & toilets, superb dog walking facilities, Chainbridge pub less than 5 minutes walk. We are far from 'old timers' but the Adult Only Area a well thought out added bonus. Definitely one of those sites to revisit again & again.
Overall first visit to this site, first time out in our caravan, first time with a dog - this site couldn't have been better.

Just returned from a 4 night stay at this fabulous site. The owners are friendly and helpful and the site is well set out and well maintained and even when full there was still plenty of space around us. The facilities are fantastic. Absolutely spotless, modern and free! The facilities here will spoil us for any other site. My only problem with this site was the lack of a play area for the children and the steep river bank drop which could be a problem if you have little ones. Still a good time was had by all and we will definitely use this site if we are in this area again.

We have just spent four nights at the site, and have found it to be one of the best so far that we have had the fortune of visiting.
The site was clean, well set out and we turned up at a moments notice to which we had a very warm welcome, by two of the friendliest people you could meet, they showed us to our plot to pitch, and the electric Hook up we could use.
The facilities block was clean and well lit at night.
I wouldn't hesitate at the chance to go there again it was Great.

Just spent two nights at Pont Kemys and found it to be an excellent site. The owners were very friendly and helpful, the site was lovely, well set out and maintained. There were plenty of electric hookup points around and we were given plenty of space for our tent and cars.
The free toilet and shower facilities were excellent - very clean and obviously well maintained and plenty of hot water in the showers, even as lots of people returned from a day of ski racing to use them!
The shop seemed to supply all the essentials and there is a pub just 300yards along the road which served excellent food - just the thing after a long drive and pitching the tent in the rain. We will definitely use this site whenever we are in the area again and would recommend it to anyone else.
