Henstent Caravan & Touring Park is a small, peaceful, family run site which
occupies a spectacular elevated position in the Tanat Valley on the fringe
of the Berwyn mountain range, which provides a stunning backdrop and superb
views. Located in Llangynog Powys. To the North of Mid Wales, just over the
Shropshire England border and on the outer edge of the Snowdonia National
Park.
There is fishing on the river Tanat, which forms one boundary of the Park,
as well as bird watching and stargazing. Locally there are good walks and
climbing to suit all levels of fitness and, for the more active,
mountain-biking opportunities.
The friendly village of Llangynog (Llan-gun-og) is only five minutes walk
and has two excellent inns, both serving good quality, value-for-money
meals.
Dogs are welcome, but must be kept on a lead. A riverside dog walk is
provided. Sorry, no dogs allowed inside our separate tent campsite.
The Park is situated on the B4391, 18 miles west of Oswestry, on the
Llanfyllin to Bala road - click the link below for a printable map. It is
easily accessible from Birmingham, Coventry, Manchester, the Potteries and
