 A great campsite with fantastic views. On arrival we discovered all the fire pits had been taken however the owner (Thomas) said we could have a fire on the ground anyway which was great, you just have to pay £5 for a bag of wood/ kindling and this lasted us 2 nights.
It was quite busy (being a Bank Holiday) however this site still felt intimate and quiet compared to many other campsites we've stayed at. It's on a farm which is quite secluded along very narrow lanes so perhaps that's why (and this is a good thing!).
The toilet and shower facilities were ok and the only suggestion would be for some hooks inside the shower room to hang clothes on (there is a clothes horse but it's not really big enough).
It's also a great location to explore the Brecon Beacons, with the main A40 road only 10 mins drive away. We would definitely recommend it and hope to re-visit it sometime in the future.

What a lovely campsite. Beautiful surroundings, and provided us a perfect base to start our walks from. The grass was nicely mowed making it lovely and soft to collapse on after a long day's walking!
For us, having a campfire is very important in a campsite. Pentwyn farm was great for this. There were a few fire pits around, but not enough when we arrived. No problem - as the owners were happy for fires to be lit on the ground - great! When a fire pit did become available, it appears at our tent when we returned from walking. Thanks Thomas!
Bags of logs could be purchased for £5. My one and only very minor issue was there could have been a few more smaller logs/sticks to help start the fire. But this is really a very picky point in an otherwise fabulous campsite.
Shower and toilets were immaculate, clean and tidy, and plenty of loo roll! As other reviewers have mentioned, there is only one shower, and 2 toilets. There were several other groups around while we were there, but we never noticed or had to queue.
Easy to find if you follow the directions(!), and only a 5-10min drive into Brecon.
Fantastic campsite! Thank you Pentwyn Farm.

Just spent four days at this fantastic campsite. The owner Thomas was extremely friendly and helpful throughout our visit and made our little boys holiday by letting him sit in the tractor. The site is on a working farm which just makes it even better - was allowed to go round the farm looking at the animals and watching whatever work was going on. There were two camping fields and were allowed to pitch wherever you wanted and not assigned to a specific pitch. The views are stunning and at night you could hear owls and the skies were great. If this wasn't enough - it also has a stream running along the bottom which was deep enough to swim in which was fantastic. The facilities were very clean and modern although there is only one shower but this did not seem to be an issue.

A lovely narrow road, but, out of the way campsite with beautiful views which can be breath taking. Facilities were more than adequate for someone like me. Toilets and dish washing areas were kept clean and plenty of toilet rolls in the toilet area, showers are on a meter.
Site has 2 sections, lower and upper. ONLY 4x4 or light loaded vehicles are best for lower section.
Site allows fires (fire pits provided and wood, (wheel barrows also provided)), and is open all year round. This site also recycles which I found very useful.
5 minutes away is the Cantref farm which is ideal for a family day out, but need plenty of money. (((Also be careful of pony trek rides in the lanes))).
Town is only 10 minutes away and is well sign posted for parking (some one way systems).
Overall. I hope to do some winter camping here 2014/2015.

We have just returned from a four night camping trip at Pentwyn Farm owned by Thomas and his family. Although the weather always plays it's part in making camping enjoyable from the first moment we arrived Thomas was friendly and really accommodating and keen to here how his facilities could be improved. The grass was neatly cut and the toilet and shower blocks were clean and tidy and the view from the top field was stunning especially at sunset.
The only advice I could give to Thomas is to consider putting a freezer in the kitchen so campers could keep their ice packs frozen as we had to buy a bag of ice each night. Great location, great site, great bloke.
Advice to other campers is to make sure that you take mozzie tablets especially if staying in the bottom field or going for a walk by the river. Lastly Thomas is keen to see a good local pub nearby but the family owned pub in Llanfrynach wasn't really it. The waiting staff were fine but the owners were a bit pompous and I got the feeling that they were trying to attract a different clientèle rather than the humble camping walker and it's dog. Prices were high and the food not up to standard. I paid a lot less for a lot more in some of the more friendly pubs in Brecon. Altogether Pentwyn Farm is a great place to chill out but will get busier as reviews like these are left.

The Pentwyn site is beautifully located at the foot of the Brecons. Small, quiet and tranquil it was the perfect retreat. Access is along a very narrow lane, anything wider than my VW T5 campervan will struggle. Satnav does not help, this site is well hidden and at present the websites do not show good maps.
The facilities are very good, basic but modern and clean and well maintained, The two unisex loos and the single, but spacious, shower could get very congested when the site is busy - we were lucky to have the site almost to ourselves.
Overall a great place, friendly owners and excellent value, ideal for those who only want the basics.

What a cracking little find this site was! Very hard to find - don't trust the SATNAV as ours took us to the wrong side of the valley! It is an ideal walkers camp, with fantastic access to the Brecon Beacons. It even has a lovely stream which was perfect to paddle in and soak my very achy feet after a long, hot walk on Fan-y-Big!
On arrival, the owner was extremely welcoming and stayed that way for the entire visit, always willing to help. The camping field was well maintained and campfires were encouraged. The owner even provides the fire pits and wood (wood for a small charge!). However, my only concern if the site was to be busy, there is only one shower and two toilets, but the owner assured us that this has not yet been a problem. It is 50p for four mins in the shower (another min would have been better). The toilets (which always had plenty of loo roll) and the showers were always lovely and clean and of a good standard.
Would not recommend for small kids but for us it was ideal! very reasonably priced.

Wow! We have had the most amazing camping experience with beautiful sunshine at an equally beautiful location.
This site is a must for anyone wanting a nice quiet site (we were a small school group carrying out expedition training in the local area). The pupils loved the fire pit and ate marshmallows and chocolate bananas. They hung out in the snug room near the toilets and shower room and played down on the lower field and paddled in the stream.
We saw buzzards, kite's, and listened to the sounds of the woodpecker. We watched the sun go down and the moon come up over the horizon. We headed out from the site on foot and walked up Fan Y Big and took to the forest of Taly Y bont to view the waterfalls. This was the perfect location to explore all that Brecon has to offer.
Thomas Jones and his family were friendly, knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble.
This site is truly a hidden gem and one that I shall return either through work or with my family and friends

Headline.
Clean Shower and Toilets. Nice owners. Great location.
Detail
Sloping site with few completely flat areas but can find a level enough area.
Access to lower field ok for 4x4 or car in the dry but otherwise park at top.
As we were there over Bank Holiday weekend it got busy but was still quiet.
Access is up narrow lanes so take it slowly.
Summary.
A really nice site in a great location and CLEAN shower and toilets.
We will go back again.

Pentwyn Farm camping site is gorgeous. We camped in the lower field, next to the stream. Our view was the lovely Brecon Beacons and luscious woods with a crisp stream running through. The farm is situated at an intersection of a number of hiking trails and this allowed us to run and hike from the camp. The owner is very nice and helpful. He keeps his camping facilities clean and in working order. We will certainly return again.
