Driving & staying in the Brecon Beacons
A campervan is easy to drive on a car licence and narrow enough for most UK lanes, though the single-track roads and tight coastal villages around the Brecon Beacons reward taking it slowly. Book campsites in advance for summer and bank holidays; many have electric hook-up, showers and a dump point. Wild camping is only broadly legal in Scotland — elsewhere always park overnight with permission or on a proper pitch.
