Camping in Monmouthshire

Monmouthshire's mix of river valleys, wooded hillsides and open farmland makes it well suited to camping and glamping alike, and its 52 sites reflect that variety. Around Abergavenny and Usk, farm-based pitches and yurt sites such as Hidden Valley Yurts sit close to the Brecon Beacons foothills, while the Wye Valley around Tintern and Monmouth draws campers keen on riverside walks and woodland cover, seen at spots like Crowfield Woodland and Troy Farm Camping.

Chepstow's sites make a good base for exploring the border country and Wye Gorge, with easy access to the coast path beyond. Elsewhere, quieter corners offer something more particular: Fairoak Lakes for those wanting water nearby, Western Sunfolk Naturist Club for a specific style of stay, and glamping options like Rockfield Glamping, Cwtch Glamping and Buckholt House Farm Glamping for those after fitted-out cabins or yurts rather than a tent.

Choosing between them often comes down to setting as much as facilities - wooded seclusion, farmland views or proximity to a market town - so it's worth deciding what kind of Monmouthshire you want on your doorstep before booking.
