Caer Beris Holiday Park is situated just outside the spa town of Builth Wells near to the Brecon Beacons, an area of outstanding Welsh countryside. Situated in 34 acres of neatly maintained grounds, the park provides a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere with something to interest every member of the family from walking, cycling, culture, scenery, nature and of course fishing!
On the site there is a stretch of free river fishing where there are salmon, grayling and trout waiting to be caught. There is also a fully stocked fishing lake (permits required).
Caer Beris itself is the site of a historic fort and the stunning Caer Beris Manor Hotel. Access to the hotel is gained from the park grounds by crossing the wooden walkway bridge which spans over the River Irfon. Guests are welcome to visit the hotel and take advantage of the facilities and events held throughout the year.
The setting is beautifully rural yet very close to the town of Builth Wells which is only a mile away - a few minutes in the car, or a pleasant 20 minute walk through the Manor Hotel grounds when the weather obliges.

Local attractions around the area include the ever popular Royal Welsh Show, The National Showcaves Centre, The Woollen Mill at Rock Mill and the breathtaking landscapes in and around the Elan Valley. We especially recommend the Red Kite Feeding at Rhayader and a walk or drive around the Elan Valley Dams. A 15 minute drive to the Victorian Spa town of Llandrindod Wells, is well worth a visit especially during the Victorian Festival in August.
