I live in Swansea but im from Glynneath and know the Neath valley like the back of my hand if anyone fancies a weekend trip soon? But im open to all the meets that are around Wales so can someone enlighten me, or does anyone fancy one soon?

So to get an idea whos interested in Camping in the Beacons early in Febuary, are as follows:

Looks good - is it an official site or a permission you have organised?
What is the availability of firewood/perm to have fires etc?
I can do early feb:)

But I also know of a free site in Ystrafelte that a river runs next to, this is also inside the beacons but the last time I camped there, there were a few kids up there all doing their thing

My days of camping outside of authorised site (privately negotiated or public campsites) are in the past now as I have no desire to be accused of tresspass or damaging woodlands :)
I know of a cheap, authorised site near there ... but it has no facilities or firewood (BYO) ....

Ive always been careful where I camp, If i think im going to damage or put anything in danger, Ill move on. Having camped here before, and people who regularly camp there, I dont think a couple of experienced craftsmen are going to get a slap on the wrist.
