WELCOME TO PANPWNTON
A family run farm campsite situated on the Offa’s Dyke footpath. Located in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, we are ideally located for those who like to walk, cycle, explore with their dogs, or simply take in the peaceful countryside.
With magical nights under the stars listening to the owls hooting in the oak woods. It’s the perfect place for your rural camping holiday!
A ten minute walk into the market town of Knighton, with its iconic clock tower, friendly pubs and cafes, and the Offa’s Dyke Centre. The River Teme runs through the farm where you can dip your feet after a long day exploring, or freshen up in our modern facilities. The heart of wales train line also runs through the farm with the Station only half a mile walk away.
OUR CAMPSITE
All pitches are non-electric grass pitches, suitable for tents, motorhomes, campervans, and caravans. We also have two overflow fields, offering a quieter spot during busier times or the option for groups and schools to hire a dedicated space.
We have recently refurbished our toilet and shower block on the main campsite, which is open 24/7. Additionally, there is Offa’s Treats Cafe on-site as well as a shared kitchen space equipped with a fridge, freezer, kettle, microwave, washing-up stations, drinking water points, and recycling facilities.
At Panpwnton Campsite, we also permit raised fires and campfires, with logs available for pre-purchase or to buy on arrival—perfect for cozy evenings under the stars.
And of course, we welcome well-behaved dogs! With plenty of open space and walking routes leading straight from the campsite, it’s a great place for both you and your four-legged companion to explore.
BELL TENTS & BACKPACKERS BARN
Do you want to travel light and leave the campervan or tent at home? Then why not take a look at our Canvas Bell Tents or our Backpackers Barn.
Our Bell Tents are perfect for a romantic getaway in a private section of our grounds. Whilst our Backpackers Barn provide the convenience of no setup and a roof over your head for a more practical stay if you are arriving late to our site.
Both available to book directly now!
OUR DOG PARK
Looking for a safe, secure space to let your dogs run free? Our 1-acre private dog park is fully enclosed with 6ft fencing and a coded gate, giving you exclusive use.
Featuring agility equipment, a picnic bench, water supply, and even floodlighting for evening sessions, it’s the perfect place for year-round fun.
Located just a short walk from the campsite, you can park within the field and enjoy beautiful views across the valley while your dogs explore. Bookable in one-hour slots online, with instant gate code confirmation.
