The morning mist rolls off the hills here, revealing a working farm where sheep graze the surrounding pastures and the quiet is broken only by birdsong and the distant bleating of lambs. This is uncomplicated, authentic Welsh countryside camping at its best.

Furnace Farm welcomes tents, campervans, and caravans to its pitches in the heart of Mid Wales, where Powys serves up some of the country's most unspoiled rural landscapes. It's ideal for those seeking a genuine farm experience away from manicured holiday parks, where the connection to the land feels immediate and real. Families wanting to introduce children to farming life and couples craving proper peace will find exactly what they need.

The facilities cover the essentials with toilets and showers available onsite. While the campfire policy requires checking on arrival, there's potential for evenings under the stars if conditions allow. The atmosphere is refreshingly low-key and agricultural—this is a place where wellies are standard footwear and the rhythms of farm life set the pace for your stay.
