This is a charming site in a lovely part of the country. It’s a small site, with generous pitch sizes, on a quiet country road, and is bounded by a stream on two sides. It’s very peaceful here.
There is a tiny village about a 20 minute walk away which is well worth a visit. It has a pub which sells gourmet food and there is a quaint shop run by volunteers. There are the substantial remains of Skenfrith castle and St. Bridget’s church which are well worth seeing. About a 15 minutes drive away, there is the very pleasant town of Monmouth for all your shopping needs.
A bit further afield there is the market town of Abergavenny, and our best recommendation is a visit to Tintern abbey and village.
We never use site toilets ourselves as we prefer our own facilities. However, Tony the owner was so proud of his new toilet block, that he wanted to show us: The toilet and shower facilities are brand new and excellent, and consist of full wet rooms with toilet, shower, basin and mirrors, hand washing soap and hand cream are also provided.
The chemical waste point is hidden away nicely. There are also good recycling facilities on site. Vodafone and O2 mobiles didn't work here and we couldn't get any TV through our caravan aerial although TV hookup is provided on the EHU posts.
A gem of a site, for adults only so plenty of peace. Excellent facilities, previously described and very friendly and helpful owners, who are justifiably proud of their site.
Stream running alongside provides a great soundtrack.
Large pitches, well laid out.
There's even an indoor lounge with a TV if that's your thing.
We will definitely be going again to this wonderful part of Wales with its rolling scenery and interesting villages.
We booked this site without really knowing what to expect as there were no reviews posted and we take great care to read other people's opinions of sites before booking. We needn't have worried as it is a real gem. We were four couples all of a certain age (40 plus!)and everyone was very pleased with the site.
Pitch sizes are generous and flat and the shower and toilet block is virtually brand new. The standard of tiling and fittings are excellent. There are three wash rooms named after the local castles and they all have wc, sink and wet room shower set ups.
We regularly sat outside the tent admiring the view with a beer or two in hand. There is not much around locally except for the Bell Inn at Skenfrith which is very nice and more of an eatery than a pub. Main courses for around £17 per head. We had great weather which really helps and the local stream acted very nicely as a fridge.
Tony the owner and Max his dog came around on regular patrols and both are very friendly and welcoming. Tony even helped me (did all the work actually) fix our blow up bed that had developed an overnight hole.
The price at £17 per night inc EHU is very good value for money and as one of our group said 'it was a pleasure to pay'
We will be back and just hope that there is room for us as when word gets out that this is such a nice place there may be a waiting list!
Just spent a night at this fabulous little campsite. It appears to have been very recently updated, the facilities looking very new and modern. They are placed in the middle of the field meaning you are never more than 20 paces from the loo (very handy for campers when the 3 o-clock in the morning call comes!).
There are three very large shower rooms, as opposed to ladies and gents. Disabled access is excellent. The showers and washing up facilities are free, there is a washing machine which you pay for as normal. There is a freezer with complimentary ice packs while yours are re-freezing. Also in the building is a small seating area with a free book exchange.
The site is by a road but don't let that put you off, I reckon no more than about 6 cars go passed in an hour when its busy. This part of the world is very popular with motorbikes but even they were few and far between.
Very pleasant welcome when we arrived and then a personal check from the 'senior' warden, Max, every 20 mins or so to make sure we were OK (Max is the owners 12 year old terrier, just in case you were wondering).
We will definitely be going back there, next time to actually go out and see some of the wonderful scenery, walk to the castles etc.
For caravan owners (we also have a caravan so look out for these things as well), every pitch has modern electric hookup (not sure what amps) and about half are fully serviced. The entrance is nice and easy to swing into and each pitch is level (some slightly slopping back and forwards but no side to side levelling) required). Check you route before going as the road we came on, via Monmouth got quite narrow. If you come via Abergavenny the road is much better for caravans.
There's no shop on site (you wouldn't expect it for only 12 pitches) but on Sunday morning a man turned up in a van to sell Sunday papers. Mobile phone coverage is probably limited (no O2) but this is a good thing, right!? TV reception might be an issue, the houses had very large aerials on the roof.
For any cyclists reading this, superb cycling country, take your bike.
The Three Castles is a smallish site but this makes it all the more special. Amenities are all 'new' and very clean. Owners Tony and Lorraine are very friendly and helpful and Max the dog is a happy little chap who likes to pop and say hello and keep his eye on things.
The surrounding area has lots to offer with stunning scenery, fantastic walks with Ross and Monmouth nearby. The site is very peaceful and a 'smashing little find'. We will definitely be back! Craig, Lyn and Holly the dog.
We have just returned from a weekend at the Three Castles Site and had to write to say what a fantastic find this site is. It is a small site with 12 pitches all set around the edge with the toilet block central placed. There are 6 serviced pitches and 6 EHU pitches, along with a CDP (hubby does this so didn’t see what it was like).
The toilet facilities are the best I have seen with three shower rooms containing a toilet, basin and shower (one of which is a disabled access room). There are enough hooks for keeping clothes and towels dry, the shower is really a wet room with loads of space and there is a decent sized basket in the shower for all the bottles of shampoo / gel you may need to use. All rooms have a shaving socket and hand dryer.
There is a separate toilet with basin, shaving socket and hand dryer. All of the shower rooms/toilet had hand wash, cotton wool, face wipes and hand cream (a very pleasing extra).
Inside the toilet block is a washing up room, a little lounge with settees and books (great if in a small tent), a laundrette (I didn’t check on prices) along with a boot drying room.
Pitches are of a good size and the owner is very helpful for those who are not so good reversing onto pitches (that would be me).
As a base for exploring, the site is situated equidistant from Hereford, Ross-on-Wye, Abergavenny and Monmouth. It is also handy for the Three Castles Trail (hence the name).
It is a short walk (just under a mile) to Skenfrith and the castle which is well worth a look and The Bell has an excellent reputation for food and is also a pub. An easy walk back through the lanes for those who like to wine and dine – just remember to take a torch!
It is a quiet, adult only site with no shop (although a newspaper van came around Sunday morning so if he could just come on a Saturday too that would be great), so being organised is necessary unless you are heading to explore then you will find shops / supermarkets in all the local towns / cities.
A site well worth a visit and I can’t wait to go back.
