The bleat of Welsh mountain sheep drifts across the hillside as dawn light spills over the Glamorgan valleys, casting long shadows through canvas and guy ropes. This is hill farming country where campsites feel genuinely part of the working landscape rather than manicured tourist attractions.

Dan Y Graig welcomes tents, campervans and caravans to this slice of South Wales, where the Glamorgan countryside rolls between former mining valleys and the Brecon Beacons' southern reaches. It's a solid base for walkers tackling the high ground or families wanting space without frills, where you're more likely to hear Welsh spoken over morning coffee than find boutique extras.

Facilities keep things straightforward with toilets and showers provided. The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so ask when you pitch up if you're planning evening flames. Dogs' welcome status isn't confirmed, so enquire beforehand if you're bringing four-legged companions. The vibe here is unpretentious Welsh camping — honest pitches, proper hills nearby, and that particular stillness that comes with altitude and agriculture.
